 * TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION
   
   Changing the conversation on what it means to be an engineer. As Engineering
   Ambassadors, we are trained in assertion evidence based presentations,
   designing engaging activities, and effective communication in team based
   environments. On top of being exceptional students, our communication skills
   allow us to be experts in anything we represent, from our individual
   interests to the entire College of Engineering.

   


 * OUTREACH
   
   Sharing our passion and pride, we inspire middle and high school students to
   challenge conventional ideas about science and engineering. Our ambassadors
   cover a variety of disciplines and stand out in their fields. EA netowrks
   with exceptional educators to make a positive impact both off and on campus.

   


 * TOP ENGINEERING STUDENTS
   
   Our ambassadors cover a variety of disciplines and stand out in their fields.
   EA netowrks with college administrators and faculty to make a positive impact
   both off and on campus. Through communication and leadership, we strive to
   become world-class engineers and seek to motivate the next generation of
   engineers to positively impact the health, happiness, and safety of our
   world.

   


 * MULTI-DISCIPLINARY
   
   Our ambassadors cover a variety of disciplines and stand out in their fields.
   Of the 15 College of Engineering majors offered at U of I, we have an EA
   member in every single field with the exception of General Engineering. As
   one of, if not the only school organizations with nearly 100% representation
   of majors, we can truly say that we are the face of the College of
   Engineering.

   


 * UNBREAKABLE BONDS
   
   Engineering Ambassadors is a family. As exceptional individuals, we tend to
   form tightly knit, long lasting bonds with one another. It is common to see
   EAs gathering outside of class on our own time, both to relax as well as to
   study. We hold social events and act as pillars of support for one another
   when times get tough and studies get rough. As the saying goes: Work hard,
   study hard, play hard.

   


 * PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
   
   The skills acquired from being an Engineering Ambassador apply directly to
   all professional fields. The ability to think critically, work in focused
   groups, and give compentent presentations are skills sought after by all
   professions today. This is without even mentioning the unlimited professional
   guidance available to EAs through our communication networks with other
   majors, school organizations, and outreach societies.

   


 * ROLE MODELS
   
   Engineering Ambassadors offers the opportunity to act as the gatekeepers for
   countless young minds to persue a career in STEM. No other outreach program
   on campus offers a comparable level of involvment and

   


 * UNCOMPROMISING EXCELLENCE
   
   As the faces of our respective disciplines as well as the College of
   Engineering, we strive to better ourselves in anyway possible. This has
   resulted in an extremely passionate and talented group of students that is
   EA.

ABOUT US

Illinois Engineering Ambassadors is a professional outreach program sponsored by
the Office of Undergraduate Programs in the College of Engineering. Our
ambassadors serve as role models of engineering to those who are classically
underrepresented and underserved in engineering fields. We seek to change the
conversation about what it means to be an engineer by focusing on how engineers
are positively impacting the health, happiness, and safety of our world.

We offer highly engaging presentations and activities on a range of engineering
topics that are appropriate for many different grade levels. To ensure that our
Ambassadors are well equipped to discuss complex engineering concepts, we train
all our EA’s in effective presentation and communication techniques.



If you would like our Ambassadors to visit your classroom, please visit our
EDUCATORS page.

WHY US


EFFECTIVE PRESENTATIONS

Our ambassadors are trained in technical communication using the assertion
evidence presentation style. This allows for us to teach scientific concepts
effectively to all age ranges. We have a library of presentations for all
science standards.


DIVERSE TEAMWORK

EA emphasizes diversity within group work. We are proud of to be an organization
with a variety of gender, ethnicities and backgrounds - each engineering major
at the University of Illinois is also represented within EA.


ENGAGING ACTIVITIES

We believe in hands-on learning. In addition to presentations, EAs design and
implement an activity that will engage students and spark their curiosity for
STEM in the real world. These are tailored for each visit according to science
standards.


RELIABLE SUPPORT

There are dozens of EAs trained each year, which allows for us to cover
off-campus visits as well as be involved with important events on the Illinois
campus. EA is also guided by two faculty advisors and EAs receive training from
faculty and staff from many units.


OUR MISSION

Sharing our passion and pride, we inspire middle and high school students to
challenge conventional ideas about science and engineering. Through
communication and leadership, we strive to become world-class engineers and seek
to motivate the next generation of engineers to positively impact the health,
happiness, and safety of our world.
