Nonprofit/Academic Membership

Nonprofit/Academic Membership in SAME

SAME’s nonprofit or academic membership gives you the opportunity to network with professionals (from both the public and private-sectors) who are working collaboratively to identify and resolve national security infrastructure-related challenges.

A great amount is demanded of your organization or institution to build leaders, support your mission, and be part of the dialogue on industry issues affecting national security. SAME provides a chance to be in the room where it happens and part of the effort to develop solutions for engineering and future leaders for the profession.

  • Gain visibility by contributing subject matter expertise through speaking at conferences, writing articles, and participating in our Communities of Interest.
  • Show your commitment to open dialogue, the profession, and your mission with listings in both our public-facing and members-only Company Directory; you’ll gain further market penetration with an individual listing for each of your agency representatives in our member-only individual member directory.
