Meet Alpha Omega Epsilon, North Carolina State University’s only professional and social sorority for women in STEM!

A Little Bit About Us

The Gamma Chapter of Alpha Omega Epsilon was founded on April 20, 1991, at North Carolina State University. For more than 30 years, our chapter has served as a home for women in science and engineering to grow both personally and professionally while building lifelong friendships. We are proud to uphold our three core ideals—friendship, leadership, and professionalism—and strive to embody these values in everything we do, on campus and beyond. We are also one of the two associate chapters of Panhellenic at NC State, allowing us to foster strong connections within the broader Greek community while maintaining our unique professional focus!

Letter From the President

Hello! I am Kaelyn Corbitt and I am so excited to be serving as President of the Gamma Chapter of Alpha Omega Epsilon at NC State University for the 2026 School Year. I am a Junior studying Biomedical Engineering with a concentration in pharmacoengineering. During my time in AΩE I have been able to hold many positions including Academics chair, Sisterhood co-chair, Standards chair, and Corresponding Secretary. Outside of AΩE, I am also involved in Student Wolfpack Club, Society of Women Engineers, and Biomedical Engineering Society.

The Gamma Chapter was founded in 1991 as a way for women in STEM to come together as sisters to create supporting friendships and learn important professional skills. Since our founding, we have created a community for hundreds of women in STEM here at NC State. 

Our pillars of friendship, leadership, and professionalism guide the decisions of our sorority. We strive to always create a warm, friendly environment where our sisters feel comfortable growing friendships and strengthening their leadership and professional skills. Our sisterhood-building events, various leadership positions, and professional development events help to provide this safe environment.

We are very active on NC State campus, participating in NC State sponsored events like Homecoming, as well as events held by other organizations on campus. We also value our relationships with other Greek Life organizations and enjoy supporting their various philanthropies.

Our philanthropy, “Dress for Success”, empowers women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire, and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life. Throughout the school year, we host events to raise money for our philanthropy, and we further support “Dress for Success” by volunteering for their organization.

Since becoming a member of AΩE, I have been able to grow in my leadership and professionalism, and have been able to do so through the support and guidance of our sisters. I am grateful for the lifelong friendships and the inspiring community of women I am able to call my own.

If you are interested in joining our chapter, please attend our recruitment events to meet our amazing sisters and hear about their experiences. We have recruitment in the fall and spring. You are also welcome to follow our Instagram page (@a.o.e.ncsu) to learn more about our chapter and recruitment process.

Gamma Love,

Kaelyn Corbitt
