The Engineering and Computer Science Community combines the residential environment with the disciplines of the College of Engineering. This close relationship gives students the chance to develop friendships in and out of the classroom. Students have the ability to discuss common challenges and achieve success through close interaction with each other and academic leaders. Overview Going to college is an exciting opportunity and University Residences gives you the chance to make new friends, meet others from different backgrounds, get involved in hall activities, play intramural sports and share in an academic living and learning community.
