[UG] Sigma Eta Pi (SEP) Recruitment Spring 2026

The following announcement is from [SEP @ USC]. Please contact them directly if you have any questions.

Hello everyone!

Sigma Eta Pi (SEP) is USC’s cohort-based startup incubator and tight-knit community of builders. Our 10-week curriculum takes founders from idea to launch, backed by workshops, mentorship, and an unrivaled professional network.

• What we build: everything from consumer hardware to defense tech to enterprise software— and everything in between.
  
• Who we build with: designers, engineers, product managers, marketers, hustlers. We don’t care what you’ve already mastered—what matters is your drive to learn, fail, and iterate fast.
  
• Why join? Our members have dropped out to pursue startups full-time, gone through YC, earned the Thiel Fellowship, worked at some of the fastest-growing startups (Ramp, Mercor), and won top hackathons (Claude, HackMIT, TreeHacks, and more).

But beyond the building, SEP is a family. You’ll learn directly from experienced founders, and many say they’ve made their closest friends here. With hackathons, dedicated hangout spaces, and unforgettable socials, there’s always something happening.

Best,

SEP @ USC
