I'm not prepared

Engineering students come from numerous backgrounds. Many enter college right after graduation from high school. Some come after serving in the United States armed forces. Some leave dead-end or stressful jobs and careers to pursue a career in engineering. A few students transfer from other majors. A sizable portion of the student body begin their engineering studies with remedial courses. Students that want to be engineers almost always become engineers. Most engineering programs, including the engineering program at the University of Maine, have free tutors, remedial classes, and help sessions. If a student is motivated to be an engineer, the University of Maine will help students prepare for a rewarding career in engineering.
