Excellence in Engineering Leadership Program
The Price Excellence in Engineering Leadership (excEL) Program is a FREE co-curricular program for undergraduate engineering students that aims to provide you with the tools and skills needed to excel as an engineering leader of the future.
About excEL
“Leading in engineering requires the foundation a degree provides, however, that is only one part of the equation. Understanding yourself and how you work, strengthening your leadership prowess and staying current with the dynamic global landscape make up the balance. The entire array of skills is required to be effective, and if mastered enables an impactful and rewarding career.
