What's your most memorable USC experience?

"When my ultimate frisbee team upset Berkeley to earn a spot at Nationals!!" - Rhea

"Studying abroad for 7 weeks in Rome, Italy through the Viterbi Summer Overseas Program has been the biggest highlight of my USC experience thus far!" - Daniel

You might be wondering...

Can I study abroad?

Of course! Apart from all the opportunities across USC, Viterbi also has its own overseas program. These are great ways to explore new cities, immerse yourself in different cultures, and learn about engineering from a worldwide perspective.

Find more about the overseas program, Ipodia, and volunteering abroad at http://viterbivoices.usc.edu/study/abroad/!

Can I do research as an undergraduate student?

You can do research as early as a freshman! It’s as easy as finding a project and topic you’re interested in, and reaching out to a professor on campus. Research is a great way to explore new topics outside the classroom.

“I work in the USC Biomechanics Lab as an undergraduate researcher; the junction of sports performance analysis, engineering and preventative medicine fascinates me, and the work excites me every day!”
– Rhea, Biomedical Engineering ’19

Does being an engineer mean I can't do anything else?

Of course not! #ViterbiLife is so much more than doing homework and taking classes. Being an engineer at Viterbi means being involved in the community, exploring new interests, and pursuing your passions! There are plenty of ways to do that, from joining student organizations, getting involved in athletics, and exploring all there is to see in Los Angeles.
