Student Ambassadors and Mentors

The College of Engineering and Computer Science (CECS) Student Ambassadors and Mentors are a select group of students who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement and exemplary student leadership. CECS Ambassadors help with the recruitment and retention of our students. They are dedicated to serving and representing CECS and Wright State University, whether it is by attending admission and recruitment events, participating in alumni activities, serving as tour guides, or mentoring first-year students, our Ambassadors are great resources for anyone in CECS!  If you have a question about what it’s like to be a student at Wright State or you need assistance on finding a resource within our College or the University, feel free to email any of the CECS Student Ambassadors.

What activity do you love most at WSU?
I love so many activities at WSU, such as the engineering department and its many interesting clubs and events. Campus rec always has fun indoor and outdoor events. Don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try things outside of your major! WSU provides many opportunities and experiences. You might discover new interests.

What do you like most about the College of Engineering and Computer Science?
I love the environment that the students and faculty have created at Wright State. The faculty allows students to think creatively and critically, without discouraging differences in thought among students. As an engineering student, being able to be in an environment that encourages innovative thinking is something that should be taken for granted!

What do you like most about the College of Engineering and Computer Science?
I love how intertwined a lot of the majors are with each other! You won’t find a computer engineer who doesn’t at least understand the basics of programming or a computer science major who hasn’t taken a couple of circuit classes. Making friends is much easier knowing you share some of the same experiences.

What does it take to be a successful CECS student?
I feel it takes passion for the topics. It doesn't take much to be successful when you have passion, but when you don't it seems impossible. I promise you it's not, just keep working until you find your passion. Once you find that, don't let go - everything goes faster when you enjoy your learning!
