The USC EERI Student Chapter is an extension of the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute with the purpose of providing students opportunities for networking and research collaboration. The USC EERI Student Chapter also aims to help students stay up to date with the latest developments in the areas of earthquake and related civil engineering, and spark enthusiasm within fellow students and faculty from different departments. Our members are encouraged to further develop leadership and interpersonal skills, expand their practical experience, and receive valuable networking opportunities with recognized professionals of the earthquake engineering fields. 
      
The objective of the EERI USC Student Chapter is to promote the study and practice of earthquake engineering, science, planning and policy, by improving inter-disciplinary communication and raising community awareness about the dangers of earthquakes and methods to mitigate their effects.

Our Goals are:
- To host seminars of earthquake engineering experts and related fields
- To host annual EERI Visiting Professional
- To increase the number of active student members
- To create outreach partnerships with local secondary schools
