PR MESUNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON CULLEN COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING

Being new on campus doesn’t have to be an intimidating experience. Getting involved in PROMES can make the transition into university life an exciting and pleasurable experience. You will meet many lifelong friends. PROMES members are involved in other engineering organizations such as the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), Society of Mexican American Engineers and Scientists (MAES), Society of Hispanic Engineers and Scientists (SHPE), and Society of Women Engineers (SWE).

PROMES offers study groups and social activities that will allow you to meet people with similar interests and courses. You will also have the opportunity to meet former PROMES students who are now engineers working in industry.

The program is for students who are interested in pursuing a degree in engineering. If you want to be part of a diversified community of scholars, if you want that “A” by attending Academic Excellence Workshops, and if you are not afraid to do that little ‘extra’ it takes to succeed, then the PROMES program is for you! How you utilize these opportunities is limited only by your ambition.

PROMES can help you work with the university’s Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid and assist you in securing grants and scholarships, and obtaining work-study jobs on campus and summer internships.

PROMES can also direct you into a cooperative education (Co-op) program, where you alternate a semester of work in industry with a semester

of study on campus.

PROMES offers special courses and highly successful workshops designed to give you a good start in engineering. PROMES students who have successfully completed these courses and participated in the workshops will be able to lead study sessions and facilitate workshops. PROMES staff work with you, providing help and advice.
