DEVELOPING FUTURE ENGINEERS AND COMPUTER SCIENTISTS
We often hear from alumni and industry partners of the need to develop “soft skills” and programming outside of the classroom that, in addition to the rigorous technical curriculum, supports a more wholistic educational experience for our ECS students.
The College of ECS is proud to have launched programs, all fully or largely supported through generous donations, that increase the number of female students, develop communication skills and leadership, teach entrepreneurship, offer collaboratives focused on software applications and clean energy, as well as sustainable development project-based experiences. The priorities reach students from every department in the College.
These programs and initiatives are:
- Women in Computer Science and Engineering
- Engineering Ambassador Network
- Entrepreneur the Residence
- Orange County Sustainability Decathlon
- Software and Clean Energy Collaboratives
Your support today will ensure the College not only continues to offer these critical programs, but has the resources to scale and expand the role extracurricular programs play in a layered student-centered learning environment.
