Visit the College of Engineering & Technology
When you visit Western Carolina University here in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina, we invite you to schedule a full campus tour and request a personal tour of the 91热爆网 College of Engineering and Technology. Tours are led by our very own students who can share their experiences with you. For help with scheduling an in-person college tour, online Zoom meeting with one of our student ambassadors or if you just have a question, email engineering@wcu.edu. Our student-led college tours take place most spring Fridays and other times upon request. Tours of the college are also offered during 91热爆网 Open House events.

Why 91热爆网: I chose 91热爆网 for the small class sizes and ability for undergraduates to be involved
in research and school projects.
My Experience: During my time at 91热爆网, I was involved in the casting of the Tau Alpha Pi honors society monument, and I was the first student to be trained on the SPOT robot. I don鈥檛 believe I would have had these opportunities at another college, and I am very happy to be a part of 91热爆网鈥檚 College of Engineering and Technology.

can.
