• Engineering program meeting

    For all potential engineers:

    On Thursday (September 26) will have a visit from a representative of
    the dual degree program at Washington University – St. Louis. He will be
    available to meet with students from 10 am to noon, in Olin 202. If you
    are interested in the dual degree program this would be an excellent
    opportunity to receive more information about Washington University,
    their engineering school, and everything about the dual degree.

    See you there!
