Engineering Living Learning Community

Students studying in loungeThe focus and mission of the Engineering Learning Community (ELC) is to bring together engineering students in a residential environment that provides encouragement and support which leads to success in pursuit of an engineering degree. The ELC provides students with the opportunity to grow academically, professionally, and personally in their quest to become an engineer. Students accepted for admission to East Carolina University are not automatically accepted into the engineering program.

The ELC will create an environment that invites opportunities for formal and informal interactions between faculty, staff, and students. It will provide opportunities and paraprofessional staff who support and enhance the residential living experience. The ELC will plan and implement programs and activities that integrate the in-class and out-of-class experience of Engineering majors. Opportunities offered include:

  • Student-led tutoring
  • Leadership and teamwork exercises
  • Informal faculty/student get-togethers
  • Block-scheduled classes with other engineering students
