Engineering-Automotive and Manufacturing Engineering Technology Learning Community

The Automotive and Manufacturing Engineering Technology Learning Community is perfect for those who want an introduction to the many facets of the automotive and manufacturing fields. You will have the opportunity to interact with faculty and get involved with students clubs and projects like Formula SAE. You will be provided with organized study groups, but also an opportunity to interact with others who are studying the same subjects and are learning to develop critical, creative, and analytical thinking skills – all things which are helpful to the study of engineering technology. While learning how to work collaboratively with peers, you will gain appreciation for and confirm your interest in engineering technology through site visits and projects.

Where you'll live

We encourage you to live on campus with others in your Learning Community because that's where much of your networking takes place, but it is not required.

You can choose to live:

  • In designated Learning Community housing
    • Renovated double rooms located in Crawford A, B, D, McElroy E, F, H or Preska I Halls.  Renovated rooms have in-room air-conditioning and share a community bathroom with the floor.
    • You can choose to have another Learning Community student assigned as your roommate, or you may choose your own.
  • Other on-campus housing
    • It will be your responsibility to choose a housing location after the time-slot provided to you by Residential Life.
  • Off-campus
