Student Organizations
As demanding as the academic program is, studying engineering is also fun. A wealth of engaging extracurricular activities in the college encourages professional, personal and leadership development. Bourns has 13 organizations, a Leadership Council and an Honor Society, all offering social activities, projects and opportunities to participate in regional and national conferences.
