Join host, Teri Carey, Assistant Director of Cornell Engineering Admissions as she dives into the world of engineering. We will be introducing you to the different majors we offer and how those fields translate into the world around us by bringing the microphone to the female voices in engineering here at Cornell. Each episode we will interview current students, faculty and alumni about what it is like to study in this field, and why it is worth exploring. In addition we hope to take the stress out of admissions by answering some common questions we get in our office about the program and offer some admissions tips along the way. We hope you enjoy our VIEW of engineering!
