Several events throughout the year offer opportunities for prospective students and families to learn more about engineering at the UW:

Engineering Discovery Days

Engineering Discovery Days is a great time to visit the UW College of Engineering (CoE)!

On April 26 and 27, 2013 the UW CoE opens its doors to the community and welcomes students, families, alumni, and partner organizations to campus to visit over 100 hands-on exhibits (appropriate for students grades 4-12), hosted by the 10 engineering departments.

On April 27, departments offer information sessions targeted for high school and transfer students. Register and confirm time and location.

Preview Days - For All UW Admitted Students

The University of Washington Office of Admissions welcomes admitted students to campus during Preview Days. While most engineering departments are not able to accommodate individual appointments with prospective students, the College of Engineering is participating in a resource fair from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Husky Union Building (HUB) first floor on the following dates:

  • March 25th and 29th
  • April 1st, 8th, 12th, 15th, 19th

If you have been admitted, register for UW Preview Days and be sure to stop by and visit us!
