How It Works:

Students are able to personalize their experience by choosing which opportunities to attend. Students must obtain a minimum of 160 points per year with at least 40 points per section to be in good standing.

Work Smarter, Not Harder:

The system has been created to reward students for what they are already doing and to challenge students to expand their thinking. If they are a student worker on campus or a COE organization member, for example, they will earn credit. Other point opportunities involve attending campus events, volunteering, undergraduate research and more! Students can also get events pre-approved for credit, if it is not notated on the guide.

Why Participate:

After successfully completing the academy, senior students will be recognized at the Spring Tech Symposium. Students will be offered exclusive opportunities to interact with industry professionals and university personnel. Students will also be able to apply the knowledge gained from these experiences in their work in the classroom and in their professional careers.
