The Engineering Graduate Student Council (EGSC) serves engineering graduate students and strives to improve their experience at the University of Florida. Our membership consists of each department and several diversity & inclusion organizations within the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering (HWCOE). EGSC represents graduate students through regular interactions with HWCOE administration. We also assist with graduate student recruiting in conjunction with HWCOE staff and organize activities & events for current graduate students.
It is our hope that every HWCOE graduate student can grow as professionals and researchers within a supportive and welcoming environment. Our monthly meetings are open and serve as a forum to understand and address the needs of our membership. We believe that EGSC can contribute significantly to building a greater Gator nation!
