Plan A Visit
With an engineering student Ambassador as your guide, you’ll not only discover the rich history of our College but also experience the many opportunities that the College of Engineering offers.
Schedule a Visit
Campus visit capacities are limited. We cannot guarantee the availability of all in-person options requested. Virtual opportunities will be available if an in-person option cannot be scheduled.
For tours hosted through the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, please register through UA’s Admissions office. If you would like to schedule an in-depth campus visit, please contact your regional recruiter.
For more details on visits, please visit the College of Engineering Prospective Student FAQ page. If you have any questions, you are welcome to email the Engineering Welcome Center or call 205-348-1596. We would be happy to assist you with your personalized UA College of Engineering visit!
In addition to in-person visits, the College of Engineering developed a Virtual Tours page. This page highlights aspects of our College of Engineering through videos and 360-degree panoramic views in and around our facilities.
Special Note: If you will be participating in Capstone Scholars Day, University Days, Admitted Tide Days, Our Bama, or the Multicultural Visitation Program, we do not recommend submitting a separate “Plan A Visit Form” to visit the College of Engineering, as our College will be present at those events and provide a similar experience.
