Planning Your Academic Career

Choosing a major can be a difficult process, especially if your interests aren't limited to a specific area. Your choice of degree will play a large role in the job you get when you graduate, but there's no need to worry. Our dedicated Advisors and Support Staff can help you plan for your future. From scheduling the right classes, to ensuring that you're happy with your choice of major, we can help you make the most of your time at the Whitacre College of Engineering.

Making the Grade

College life can be overwhelming. Jugling a part-time job, a full-time class load, and finding time for self-care, the life of a student gets pulled in a multitude of different directions. Keeping up can be difficult, especially with challenging subjects like Calculus or Thermodynamics. That's why the Whitacre College of Engineering provides free Tutoring in mathematics, sciences, and freshman and sophomore level engineering courses. In addition, several TTU Academic Stakeholders, student organizations, and academic departments provide tutoring support. At Texas Tech, we take care of our students and provide the support necessary to help you earn the grades that you deserve.

Landing Your Dream Job

Trying to begin your career can feel like a full-time job in itself, especially when balancing everything else in your junior and senior year. That's why EOC Career Services are here to provide support. Our biannual Engineering Job Fair is your chance to connect directly with companies without leaving Lubbock. The Engineering Opportunities Center hosts workshops and events to give you tips on your résumé, job searching, and interviewing as well as help finding an internship or co-op to give you an advantage in finding a full-time position.
