Student Success at Herff
At Herff College of Engineering, student success is at the heart of everything we do. By investing in your growth, we’re building the future — one engineer at a time.
We offer a pipeline of programs and activities designed to recruit, retain, and equip students with the knowledge and skills that give them a professional edge. Whether you live on campus or commute, we make sure every Herff student feels connected, supported, and positioned for success — in college and beyond.
Supporting Success Inside and Outside the Classroom
At Herff, we believe true success goes beyond academics. That’s why we help students thrive both in the classroom — through mentoring, advising, and hands‑on learning — and beyond the classroom, by building connections and leadership skills. By creating opportunities to engage, collaborate, and lead, we prepare our students not just for graduation, but for lifelong achievement.
Get Involved Across Campus
A strong sense of belonging is key to student success. At Herff, engineering students bring their creativity and drive to every part of campus life — and beyond. Join one of over 200 student organizations, from intramural sports to service clubs, cultural groups, student government, and more. Start your own group or event to share your passion and leadership. Take part in meaningful outreach efforts like Up 'Til Dawn — an award‑winning student‑led fundraiser, founded at the University of Memphis, now celebrated on campuses nationwide to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
No matter your interest, there’s a place for you to connect, create, and make a difference.
