Opportunities

Lafayette students enjoy a wide variety of opportunities from projects to research to study abroad.

Extending education beyond the classroom, these experiences offer close student-faculty interaction, collaboration and teamwork, as well as intellectual growth.

Student Projects

It Swims. It Squirts Water. It's Robo Fish!

Students collaborated all year on the artificial archerfish project.

Oh Deer

Project catches deer in the headlights of autonomous vehicles.

Research

Student NSF Research Fellowship

Gabrielle Conard '21 worked with Assistant Professor Alex Brown on her thesis developing a low-cost quadruped robotics platform that could be used by researchers who may have a limited budget.

Study Abroad

Lafayette is a leader in study abroad experiences

Approximately two-thirds of engineering students have an off-campus-study experience with nearly one-third participating in a semester-long international program.
