"EET allows me to not only learn about electrical engineering, but also apply it at the most fundamental level... I am able to try, fail, and succeed."

"It’s satisfying to see something function based on what I designed or learned... I enjoy understanding how electrical systems work."

“The reason why EET is so fun is because it allows you to really think about how everything works. Technology is a big part of everyone's life and it makes it really fun to be curious how things work. It creates a great mindset for anyone who steps into the field of Engineering.”
