NACOE Student Ambassadors
Who we are:
Started by the Norm Asbjornson College of Engineering (NACOE) in 2001 our purpose is to:
- promote the NACOE to prospective students and their families;
- inspire young people to pursue careers and opportunities in Engineering and Computer Science by educating high school students about engineers and computer scientists do;
- provide a voice for students in the NACOE; and
- enhance retention by educating prospective students on the skills, classes, and occupations involved in the different engineering and computing disciplines - promoting a "good fit."
