Michigan Tech students create the future. Students in our Enterprise Program work with industry sponsors on projects such as wakeboard design, homeland security, WiFi, video games, international business, environmental sustainability, and nanotechnology. Programs such as Engineers Without Borders, Habitat for Humanity, and Make A Difference Day positively impact communities here and around the globe. Students can choose from more than 120 programs in arts, humanities, and social sciences; business and economics; computing; engineering; environmental studies; sciences; and technology. We offer an excellent education in emergent fields such as computer network and system administration, pharmaceutical chemistry, sound design, bioinformatics, and exercise science. Many of our engineering programs rank in the top ten nationally in enrollment and degrees granted, and our technical communication program is among the nation’s largest. Outside of classrooms and labs, students enjoy our golf course, ski hill, trails and recreational forest, and small-town atmosphere in beautiful Upper Michigan. Our Winter Carnival features world-famous snow statues; and other annual celebrations include the Parade of Nations, with an international food festival; Keweenaw Day, an afternoon on Lake Superior’s shore; and Spring Fling, one last picnic before finals. \r\n
