New Student BBQ helps engineers find community
Peace Park was filled with the smell of hamburgers and the chatter of excited freshmen as they got to know their new family at the College of Engineering. The New Student BBQ on Thursday evening was, according to Dean Elizabeth Loboa, the largest she had ever seen. She hoped the barbecue gave new students the opportunity to get to know the College more and build lasting connections.
Bridge Program fosters success for first-year engineers
Transitioning to college is tough, and transitioning into a demanding major such as engineering is even tougher. That’s why Mizzou Engineering debuted its Engineering Success Bridge Program in 2018, then expanded it to a month-long program for 2019. The four-week-long camp gives students an idea of what to expect once their college journeys begin in earnest.
ASEE recognizes Mizzou Engineering for commitment to diversity, inclusion
The American Society for Engineering Education recently launched their Diversity Recognition Program to recognize schools and colleges of engineering for their commitment to diversity and inclusion. The ASEE selected Mizzou Engineering for a Bronze Level award, the highest given out in this recognition cycle.
