LTU

My best memory of LTU is the time I spent as a leader on the Baja SAE team. It was the year that they moved from two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive and we had to do a complete re-design. It was laborious, but the team was committed. We believed we could do it and we did.

The faculty within the mechanical engineering program really want to see their students succeed. Many professors dedicate time outside of class to give additional help with coursework or provide academic and career advice. They push us to think critically about the engineering problems we encounter.
