T&S is responsible to help create and disseminate technical content in its program areas. T&S also intends to develop and disseminate its own position statements, per ASME policy, on a variety of topics pertaining to its "program lines." But there is a "missing ingredient," without which T&S will wither - committed volunteer members.

T&S is seeking volunteers to serve as subject matter experts (SME's) in the wide range of areas relevant to T&S. It is also seeking volunteers to perform the other necessary functions of a Technical Division, as well as volunteers to lead the overall effort.

T&S is changing and will continue to change. T&S SME's and T&S managers will be expected to operate via email and occasional conference calls. They will not be expected to attend ASME annual meetings to meet face-to-face.

T&S Executive Committee
If you are interested in an Executive Committee (EC) position (Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary/Treasurer, and Member-at-Large), please submit a self-nomination to the T&S Nominating Committee. EC members are division members with "Profit and Loss" accountability for the division and are responsible to the E&TM Group Vice President for overall division performance. Division members with management and leadership experience are encouraged to self nominate by sending a brief 1-2 page resume and cover letter to the Executive Committee Chair. Primary selection criteria include demonstrated desire to learn, capability and a willingness to serve on the EC for at least 2 years (not necessarily in same position both years). ASME experience and past volunteer team leadership success are also especially valued.

T&S Program Committees
Volunteers to contribute to the technical content creation and dissemination processes of the various Program Committees. Available positions include technical expert, sub-committee chair and committee chair. Younger members interested in gaining management experience as well as more experienced members who are subject matter experts in the division's field of interest are encouraged to notify a member of the Executive Committee.

Volunteer roles will be customized to meet member time availability, current expertise and areas of future interest. Enthusiasm and desire to learn and contribute are a must, but previous ASME experience is not required.

Students and Young Engineers are especially encouraged to participate.

T&S Functional Committees
In addition to technical content creation and dissemination, T&S has other functions and needs. Volunteers are needed in the functional committees listed on the committee index page.

Individuals with an interest in any of these committees should contact any member of the Executive Committee.
