Summer Zero

Summer Zero is a multi-week program for incoming first-years to help students get to know their cohort and introduce them to the engineering program and life at USF. The program is led by key faculty members and peer mentors from engineering and related departments who are eager to teach courses and serve as mentors. Students take math, programming and writing courses and participate in activities which help them understand their individual talents and assets as they prepare to enter the program. Coursework is supplemented with workshops with a focus on community building, campus resources and an introduction to the engineering profession. All program costs are covered by the department.
