During the week of October 18th (which we are calling “Major Decisions Week”) Engineering Advising is facilitating two events aimed at assisting first and second year Engineering students with choosing a major and better understanding the affiliation process. 

The first is the traditional:

Engineering Majors Information Fair

Where: Duffield Hall Atrium
*All 12  Majors plus Engineering Advising, Co-Op & Career Services, Learning Initiatives and Engineering Student Clubs and Organizations will be participating!

 

Want to learn more about the majors with which you are interested in affiliating? Not sure if you are on track for your intended major?
Not certain about which major to study?
**Names of all unaffiliated students who attend will be placed in a drawing for several door prizes!

The second is:
