Getting Involved

Michigan Tech offers many ways to get involved in the University. The local area also offers other ways to get involved. (Michigan Tech Traditions)

It is important to get involved outside your school work. Industry, whom will most likely be hiring you, will not only explore your academic record, but your extracurricular activities, while you were achieving your degree.

...there is more than just being book smart.
