Engineering and Science

We really specialize in hands on stuff, as the classes as much as we can get hands on. In my statics class, we're actually building a bridge. So we designed a bridge on a software, and then we were tasked to actually build it.

The engineering and science COES as they have a great way of keeping students engaged not just in school, but Eco car, Concrete Canoe, all of these are important different organizations.

The Office also is responsible for Gumbo Fest, Spring Release. My favorite COES experience was my freshman year, we launched a high altitude balloon for aerospace. We did it before the football game at the Argent Pavilion, right by the stadium. It was really cool. It went way up in the air. We got a lot of cool pictures from it.

So living with the lab here at Tech, it's a really great experience coming in your freshman year. You're able to get hands on experience working with various different types of projects, as well as getting the base foundation of all the different engineering majors. All of our professors are really welcoming. A lot of them have office hours, and they even say, even though these are my office hours, I'll be my office at these times too. Many times I've gone in there just to, you know, catch up with professors, ask questions. They're really here to help you as long as you're willing to put forth that effort. They will reciprocate that energy.
