The IEP would like to thank all students, alumni, industry reps, faculty, staff & admin who came out to our IEP student showcase & networking night last week. We really enjoyed hosting all of you and hope that you enjoyed the event as well! #iepimpact #iepabroad

Scenes from this week's Engineering & Technology Career Fair! Great to see our IEP students and alumni connecting with the many employers in attendance and with each other! #iepimpact #lifeafteriep Photos courtesy of Dr. Berka, IEP

As we approach #DayofGiving we reflect on why we give. We give for students like Cristian - a Thomas M. Ryan Distinguished Scholar. As an international engineering student (@IntEngProgURI) , the whole world opened up to him at URI. Watch his full story ➡️ rb.gy/9tr3q

Always check your spam folder—Fulbright Scholar Heather DiFazio '23 is glad she did. Learn about her dream partnership that will take her to Switzerland to research the development of medical imaging devices that use artificial intelligence (AI). ➡️rb.gy/fws1h

Meet biomedical, German (IEP) and math major Heather DiFazio, who is headed to Switzerland (Universitat Bern) to work on a biomedical device to help those with cancer. tinyurl.com/8t9dxf6b

21 members of the URI community including 19 students have been named 2023 Beatrice S. Demers Foreign Language Fellows by the Rhode Island Foundation and awarded over $280,600 to pursue foreign language immersion in foreign countries. bit.ly/URIDemers

Exciting to film with some of our Ryan and Verrecchia scholars last week! Stay tuned for more on these incredible @universityofri students 👀 Pictured: Cristian Varela '26

@universityofri International Engineering student shares her gratitude for the excellence in the @IntEngProgURI program supporting multilingualism #MEAD2023 @MultilingualRI

#MEAD2023 was great because all of you, thank you for supporting the Coalition! @ProgresoLatino @PLEERI @dii_of_ri @RITELL_ESL @IntEngProgURI @icsrhodeisland @BrownEduDept @ri4cj @9librariespvd @pvdthings @RISDEAF @youngvoicesri @MABEnortheast @ricWLED @RIDeptEd @pvdschools

CG Kreibich was happy to join @UniversityofRI 🇩🇪 students for a fun afternoon of “angrillen”. Great to learn about the successful, @IntEngProgURI, wherein students earn a degree in a foreign language & engineering simultaneously, preparing the next generation of global engineers.

Thanks for hosting us yesterday, Cranston West! So great to be back in the Nest to share about our program with your students.

A great start to the new year getting to meet the impressive @universityofri alumni community abroad! From Europe to Indonesia, know that wherever you are in the world you will always have a home at URI.💙🐏 #GoRhody

Maeve Story '20 is this year's recipient of the 10 Under 10 Award from @URIEngineering! Her enthusiasm for @universityofri's ocean engineering program lead her to success in her own career while inspiring the next generation of engineers. Full ceremony ➡️ bit.ly/3xkpT3S

Time management is crucial for Aidan Kindopp, who majors in chemical engineering and French at URI, while running on the cross country and track & field teams. 👉 bit.ly/3FkaDYk #A10TF @ChemEngMag

Long before words like global, interdisciplinary and experiential were common in higher education, URI launched its five-year International Engineering Program. The program changed the way engineering students compete in the global marketplace. ➡️: bit.ly/3tSgfU0

The theme of this year’s virtual Colloquium on International Engineering Education, hosted by URI’s International Engineering Program on Nov. 2-3, was “Connecting Engineering with the Humanities.” ➡️ bit.ly/3TtNyY6

Our event will be hosted within the conference app Whova, so if you register, be sure to register online for Whova as well (lnkd.in/dwdSGbav). For any issues with Whova, please write to Melissa at schenckm@uri.edu.

The 25th Annual Colloquium on International Engineering Ed. (#ACIEE2022) is just ONE week away, taking place virtually 11/2-11/3. *Registration closes @ 12:00pm EDT, Tues, 11/1.** bit.ly/aciee2022reg. For registration issues, contact Brett Nicolopoulos @ bnicolopoulos@uri.edu
