Part 2: Friday, August 23, 2024 from 10:00 – 11:30 am (PST)
I started teaching engineering at a very young age. I have been teaching, advising, and mentoring engineering students for over four decades. I discovered that many brilliant students want to major in engineering, but have no clue what engineering is! This seminar can be beneficial to all students.
It starts (Day 1) by covering history of engineering and engineering education. It covers engineering disciplines and careers, emphasizing on the great benefits of receiving a degree in engineering.
In Day 2, the seminar discusses how to succeed in engineering education and in life in general!
This seminar is open to all incoming students. It can benefit those who have decided to major in engineering, those who have selected a major other than engineering, and those who are still undecided.
Lead By: Professor Oussama Safadi
