ISE Ambassadors
ISE Ambassadors assist the ISE department, student body, and community. This support is in a variety of areas, including advisory board and alumni relations, community outreach, curriculum development and improvement, marketing, event planning, and recruitment. Example activities include assistance with Department, College, and University recruiting events for prospective ISE students (Engineering Open House, University Open House weekends, etc.), and freshman engineering students (Freshman Information Session), as well as social events (e.g., Family Day). Ambassadors are amongst the best and brightest ISE upperclassmen: they are selected through a rigorous application and interview process in the Spring semester, with service as an Ambassador that begins the following Fall.
