Pre-Admission Recruiting Event
Date: October 5, 2012
Location: Davis Auditorium, CEPSR 412
Did you think that the only schools that offer a top-tier graduate education in electrical engineering are Stanford, MIT, and Berkeley? Think again. Columbia University's Electrical Engineering Department has world-class faculty involved in cutting-edge research. The Department’s small size allows highly individualized attention to our Ph. D. students. Our compact campus produces interdisciplinary interactions on a scale unmatched by anyone.
The Department invites college seniors from select undergraduate institutions to a special pre-admissions recruiting event. At this event, you will have the opportunity to meet our faculty and graduate students and learn about the exciting opportunities Columbia has to offer. You will also have a chance to sample life in New York City, one of the most dynamic and diverse metropolises in the world.
