Gator Shadow Day

February 21, 2007

Florida high school seniors who have been admitted to the University of Florida College of Engineering for the Summer B or Fall 2007 semester will be invited to visit the UF campus to learn firsthand what a typical day in the life of a UF engineering student is like. Participants will follow College of Engineering student mentors to class and attend a college information session which focuses on academic preparation and requirements, majors, campus resources, and research opportunities. Depending on their mentor's class schedule, participants will also be able to attend engineering lab tours and the Engineering & Science Fair.

The deadline to apply was February 16, 2007. Registration is now closed.
