Student Ambassadors

The Student Ambassador Program was established to improve outreach to prospective students and build relationships with our alumni and the WSU community. Ambassadors will represent the College of Engineering and Computer Science and serve as hosts and hostesses at various events, both on and off-campus. CECS Student Ambassadors are a select group of students who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement and exemplary student leadership. Ambassadors are dedicated to serving and representing the College of Engineering and Computer Science and Wright State University.
