Participating on a student project team will help you develop a set of skills that will benefit you long after you leave the Engineering Quad. While participating on a student project team requires commitment, what you will gain is immeasurable. You will have opportunities to:
-
Reinforce classroom instruction by applying theory to existing engineering problems
-
Deepen your analytical and problem-solving skills
-
Help others by using your engineering expertise for public good
-
Hone your ability to lead, give public presentations, and work as a member of a team
-
Develop social connections and network with faculty and industry representatives
-
Work with, and learn from, a remarkable group of peers
-
Gain a sense of accomplishment and self confidence
-
Learn to overcome failure and find pathways to success
-
And, perhaps most importantly, have fun while working on projects that you are passionate about and that bring engineering to life for you
