Undergraduate Research and Opportunities
»Undergraduate Research and Opportunities
At Fowler, we're committed to fostering your career as an engineer right from the start. That's why unlike most schools, we let you get involved in research as early as your first semester. Read on to find out how to get involved in research on campus, plus plenty of other great opportunities for aspiring engineers.
Faculty research
What's one of the best ways to get involved in academic research? Through your professors. They all have their own research projects, and students are welcome to join in. Check out a full list of projects on our Join a Faculty Research Project page.
Exploring engineering to its fullest
One-credit (pass/no pass) courses and engineering seminars are great ways to learn more about the subjects you are interested in outside of your core classes — and we offer both every semester.
Putting your engineering skills into practice
You'll be able to gain valuable experience and industry connections with on-campus opportunities like Make-a-Thon. Plus, you'll gain experience doing the work real engineers do every day.
