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
A takeaway I had from the excEL program is that as engineers, we have a responsibility to be leaders in a more broad sense. While being a leader in a team is greatly beneficial, as engineers we can do even more by making the world more equitable for all, especially through the use of designing for accessibility and thinking of others when we are doing our work in the future.

- Attend a minimum of four, 2-hour evening workshops offered in the 2024/25 academic year and complete a post-event survey for each.
- Attend at least two existing networking events (e.g. UMES networking events, ASE Career Fair, Reverse Career Fair, Women in Engineering & Geoscience Mentorship program, ACEC Mentorship Program, etc.) and submit a short reflective learning assignment on each event.
- Complete a year-end Engineering Leadership reflection assignment highlighting key learnings/unlearnings.
If you complete the above requirements, you will receive an excEL Program Letter of Accomplishment to add to your portfolio/resume.
