Student testimonials
If you are interested in both electrical and mechanical engineering, this is a great choice. It's always exciting to work on the 'cool stuff', like operating robot arms or making a line-following buggy by yourself. It's also good for making friends, since we share a few classes with students from other majors like Electronic and Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering.
