MCAA Welcomes Two New Student Chapters

November 15, 2016

MCAA’s growing family of student chapters at colleges and universities around the country has increased by two—one at Missouri State University in Springfield, MO and another at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks in Fairbanks, AK.

The Missouri State University Chapter of the Mechanical Contractors Association of America is sponsored by the MCA of Greater Springfield, Missouri.  Prof. Jacob Nelson, an instructor with the Department of Technology and Construction Management, is the chapter’s faculty advisor.  Bryan Fielder, president of Springfield Engineering Company in Springfield, MO led the effort to organize the chapter.

The University of Alaska-Fairbanks is the home of the UAF Student Chapter of the Mechanical Contractors Association of America. The MCA of Fairbanks is the sponsoring association, and Prof. Daisy Huang with the Department of Mechanical Engineering is the faculty advisor.

Both chapters will receive their charters at MCAA 2017 in San Diego, CA during the Awards of Excellence Breakfast.  Both chapters will be eligible for the Emerging Chapter Grant and scholarships.

Congratulations and welcome!
