Outside the Classroom
Applied Projects
Every Engineering senior also completes a year-long design project, some of which have even been patented.
Students work in conjunction with an industrial internship where they will apply their educational experience and expertise to identify, plan and design a practical solution to an actual problem.
Student Engagement
Juniors and seniors in the Electrical Engineering program often volunteer their time to tutor and mentor underclassmen in mathematics and engineering. Students also participate in funded faculty research and in student organizations and student chapters such as:
- Drone Club
- Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
- IEEE Aerospace and Electronics Systems Society (IEEE AESS)
- Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE)
- Society of Women Engineers (SWE)
Science Living Community
Students majoring in any science — from Physics to Computer Science, Biology to Engineering — can join the Science Living Community. Members live together and can participate in a variety of programs throughout the year.
