How long do mechanical engineers go to school:New Students To The Jacobs School: Welcome!...Work Difficult / Popular Off Involved / Accept Fun

NanoEngineering professor Darren Lipomi speaking at the Jacobs School community welcome.

Welcome incoming students to the Jacobs School of Engineering. Everyone hither at the Jacobs School is thrilled that y'all are here. CONGRATULATIONS on making it this far!

This "photo of the week" (which includes NanoEngineering professor Darren Lipomi) as well as the other photos inward this postal service are from a casual community welcome at the Jacobs School hosted yesteryear the UC San Diego chapters of the National Society of Black Engineering (NSBE), the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) as well as the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) as well as the IDEA Student Center.

Now…get ready to move hard! Earning an technology scientific discipline score is a lot of work. But it tin equally good hold out a lot of fun.

Get involved inward technology scientific discipline educatee organizations, technology scientific discipline squad projects, as well as technology scientific discipline outreach programs. Do summertime internships. Do the Team Internship Program as well as Global TIES. Get involved amongst the Triton EngineeringStudent Council (TESC).
