Attention, Engineering Freshmen

Jacks ELEVATE program is a one-week experience immediately prior to the start of the semester. The program emphasizes development of key skills to kick-off your engineering education on the right foot. Your week starts Sunday with the move-in to your dorm — before all other SDSU first-years — followed by a welcome picnic. Students and their families and SDSU staff are invited.

Activities for the week include:

• touring college facilities, including engineering lab and workspaces
• team and community building activities and projects
• learn the places to eat, shop and play
• meeting faculty, staff, department heads and the dean, plus industry leaders
• workshops on wellness, study habits, leadership and communication
• identifying campus and community resources

Program Objectives

• Connect: Teamwork and peer collaboration
• Navigate: Learn the campus, community and resources
• Develop: Problem-solving and critical thinking
• See: Science, engineering and research
• Learn: Time management, study skills, good communication and leadership concepts
• Be: Ethical, professional, teammate and friend

No cost to participate

Yes, that’s right — no cost, no fees, nothing. Your early dorm move-in, your food, your first Jacks logo wear — it’s all included at no cost to you.

Support for the Jacks ELEVATE programs comes from the David and Shelley Frazee Scholarship Fund.
