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."

What we do:

Since its creation, the NACOE Ambassadors program has been involved in many activities, including:

  • Daily tours through Admissions
  • High School Visits
  • Expanding Your Horizons
  • Engineer-a-thon (and other Engineering Week events)
  • Science Olympiad
