Alumni

Who Are Our Alumni?

Our students graduate with a strong commitment to their new professions. Many also retain close ties to the department in order to forge professional relationships, continue their education, and reconnect to college life.  NC State engineering degrees helped our alums find employment, but not just for themselves. They also hire our graduates and provide opportunities that expose our students to the profession.

We have many alumni whose children, and children’s children come to NC State, knowing that we provide some of the best education programs available. We excel in preparing students for the workplace – our alumni, including those who have been selected as Distinguished Engineering Alumni, are living proof. 

We are grateful to MAE alumni who continue this beneficial cycle of academic and professional success. We keep up with their news, accomplishments, awards, recognitions and more, and share these developments through our website, social media, and our annual departmental magazine: The MAETRIX
