Young men and women from varied backgrounds and with many different skills can be successful engineers. However, to become an engineer, you must have an unusually strong interest and outstanding ability in mathematics and science, be able to study efficiently for long hours, and understand what you read. You should be curious about how and why things work. You must also be concerned with the social implications and consequences of everything you do. Most successful engineering freshmen rank in the top 20 percent of their high school graduating class. UW-Madison is ranked as a top university, and many of the very best entering freshmen choose to enroll in the College of Engineering.
The percentage of women in engineering at UW-Madison is increasing
steadily to meet the continually increasing demand for engineers. The
college has a very active, award-winning student chapter of the
Society of Women Engineers. Its members provide mentoring and
professional contacts for newer students, both male and female.
