Come see for yourself all of the great things that are happening here at the School of Engineering.
We are pleased to resume offering in-person engineering tours this fall quarter! Our tour guides, current engineering undergraduate students, will lead walking and virtual tours of our engineering facilities in the new Sobrato Campus for Discovery and Innovation. During these 60-75 minute tours our students will showcase our teaching and research facilities, discuss the various engineering programs and opportunities, and share their experiences as students in the School of Engineering at Santa Clara University. In accordance with local health guidelines, our in-person tours will be kept small and all participants must be masked while inside buildings on campus. We hope you will join us to discover Engineering at SCU!
The School of Engineering will begin offering in-person tours of our new facilities in the Sobrato Campus for Discovery and Innovation from Monday, January 3 through Tuesday, March 22 for the winter quarter. Our in-person tour, hosted during the week by our School of Engineering Tour Guides, will introduce you to SCU’s School of Engineering, take you on a walking tour of our facilities, and allow you the opportunity to ask questions and hear about first-hand student experiences. Virtual tour options will be added soon!
