Student Resources

The Center for Engineering Outreach and Inclusion offers a number of resources for engineering students—both undergraduate and graduate students.

Equity and Inclusion Resources

The College of Engineering is looking to further develop and implement a plan of action to address systemic racism. That starts with self-education and a commitment to building a stronger and more inclusive environment here in the college. This page contains various resources that we hope provide the College of Engineering’s faculty, staff, and students with ways to actively listen, learn, respond, and support our community. More »

Scholarships

While the college isn’t directly involved in matters of student aid such as federal student loans, we do administer endowed and corporate scholarships for engineering students based on criteria including major, interest, merit, and financial need. More »

Special Interest Housing

Living in special interest housing is a great way to meet friends with the same interests and academic programs, learn more about engineering and engineering careers, and benefit from academic and social programs. These living options are typically located on designated floors or in designated sections of particular residence halls, and participation in the special academic and social activities is expected of all residents. Programming includes tutoring and career development activities. More »
