Other Students

Other students are a valuable resource because they have taken the classes, found internships, looking for jobs and considering graduate school. They also are willing to answer your questions.

Student Societies

Societies provide an excellent opportunity to meet other engineering students. Also societies hold advising sessions and make available a variety of services to the public. The ‘ejc-announce’ email list provides information about these activities. To join this list, go to http://lists.berkeley.edu/ and follow the directions.
