Where you belong: Mizzou Engineering ambassadors encourage others to choose Mizzou

Mizzou Engineering ambassadors are students who have loved their time at Mizzou so much that they choose to give back by representing the College. Each week, they lead tours of Lafferre Hall for future Tigers and their families. And throughout the semester they’ll take time on the weekends to speak with students and their families at Meet Mizzou Days or Mizzou Engineering events.

Co-Chairs discuss new events and memories ahead of Engineers’ Week 2024

This spring, engineering students at Mizzou will follow the gold brick road to celebrate Engineers’ Week 2024: The Engineer of St. Patrick. E-Week is organized by St. Pat’s Board and Engineers’ Club, which are led this year by seniors Jimmy Keating and Madi Robinson. We asked them to tell us a little about themselves, the tradition and what the College can expect for this year’s festivities.
