Congratulations! Welcome to the Bearcat family. This page includes everything you need to know and do as a new CEAS student here at the University of Cincinnati. If you have questions? Please let us know. See you soon!
Choose visit options based on what you want and need.
Admitted Bearcat Day, our premier on-campus celebration designed for admitted students, allows you to explore campus and learn about life as a University of Cincinnati student.
Dates: March 1st, March 14th, March 28th, April 11th.
The College of Engineering and Applied Science is excited to welcome you to campus to share more about what CEAS has to offer. You can expect to hear from current students, faculty, advisors, the CEAS admissions team, and more while you're here on campus. You'll also get a chance to explore our engineering buildings and attend informational sessions to learn more about what interests you as an admitted CEAS student.
Date: Saturday, March 8th.
We've designated one-on-one meetings with a member from the CEAS Recruitment Team from the comfort of your home or right here on UC's campus. We have different options of meetings that best suit your needs and questions. If you would like a tour of our engineering buildings after your meeting, please be sure to specify that in your request.
Join the CEAS Recruitment Team as we discuss the programs we offer, co-op, affordability, student experience/support, and more! You'll also get an opportunity to connect with current CEAS students! These Monday events are designed just for admitted students. Register in the portal.
Want to see what a day in the life as a CEAS student would be like? Come tag along with one of our current students in your major of interest. You'll get to sit in on major specific engineering classes, get a closer look at our campus, and spend the day asking questions about life as a University of Cincinnati student.

Rachel Kaufman is a biomedical engineering student that chose UC because of the co-op program and it just felt like home. Read her story!
Co-op is the cornerstone of a degree from the College of Engineering and Applied Science. Dean John Weidner shares the importance of co-op once you graduate.
At the University of Cincinnati, undergraduate engineering degrees take five years to complete, unlike the typical four-year bachelor's degree program. But that extra year is incredibly valuable for students to gain a head start on building their careers. Students receive unique, hands-on experiences during their time at the College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) through the cooperative education (co-op) program. Co-op is built into the curriculum and students alternate between semesters in the classroom and semesters working full-time in industry or research.
Bailey Freeland shares how she used opportunities at the University of Cincinnati's College of Engineering and Applied Science to the fullest.

One challenge many students face when transitioning to a college schedule and course load is how to manage their time. This is especially important in engineering since students, aside from their first year, do not get summers off due to the co-op schedule. University of Cincinnati civil engineering student Julie Holkovic provides helpful time management tips that she has learned through her five years in the College of Engineering and Applied Science.
Interested in the international co-op program at the University of Cincinnati? Gretchen Spears, mechanical engineering student, shares her experience working on co-op in Tuttlingen, Germany.
Can’t make it to our campus in person? We’ve created a virtual tour to help you fall in love with UC. CEAS students take you on a tour through engineering buildings, facilities, classrooms, and more.
