And now your feature presentation

And now your feature presentation In a worldwhere engineers want to become leaders3 students must face the truthabout engineering leadership. As I hinted at in my last entry, Kevin 11, Joe 12, and I had an on-camera discussion about how GEL has affected our view on leadership. For your reference, Joe starts things off with a lesson from ESD.950, the Engineering Leadership class the three of us took in the first week of IAP. Joe, who is the Chairman of The Tech, went on a field trip to MassWeb, the newspapers publisher, over IAP! Photo by Sam Range 13. At 2:25, I then recall my first leading experience from the Engineering Leadership Laboratory (ELL) last semester. Okay, where to begin? was what I was thinking at the start of an activity where I led my ELL group, including Tiffany 11. Photo by Yasemin Gokce 11. Then, at about 6:35, Kevin talks about a late-night adventure in the MIT tunnels in which he surprisingly relied on a lot of capabilities of engineering leadership that we learned from the ELL’s. Kevin shared this awesome picture with me; last fall, he went to entrepreneurship conference at the New York stock exchange! Enjoy! For all you prospective undergrads out there, I hope these experiences show you how the Institute offers opportunities for students to live out MITs motto of Mens et Manus (Mind and Hand). For all you aspiring engineering leaders in the classes of 12 or 13 (yes, a lot of current students still read these blogs!), heres the application for the GEL program that I reference at the end. And in case you dont believe us The cabinets on their epic journey. Photo by Kevin. It really worked! Photo by Yasemin Gokce 11.
