Undergraduate Student Ambassadors

About the Ambassadors

The SEAS Undergraduate Student Ambassadors are a diverse group of students from our departments who are enthusiastic about SEAS and UB and want to share their experiences and all that the university has to offer with prospective and current students.

The ambassadors volunteer their time at recruitment events like Open House, Discovery Day, Friday Engineering Tours, and other prospective student visits.

Meet the Ambassadors

“My advice for future UB students is to explore different opportunities, get involved and find what you are passionate about. SEAS offers a variety of different opportunities for its students so you won't have to look very far! ”

Kelly Kramer
 Civil Engineering Major

“People in the SEAS community have a diverse background and large array of interests. Most are driven by passion or a goal to achieve, and it is always fun and interesting to learn about the applications of the material taught in class.”

Nicholas Percello 
 Electrical Engineering Major

“UB SEAS is a very large program and the size of the school oftentimes appears intimidating for incoming freshman. What makes our school unique is its ability to have the personal feel of a small school while still being relatively large.”
9/1/22

Ryan Wilson
Aerospace/Mechanical Engineering Major

“My best advice to you is to join clubs and other engineering-oriented groups. This way, you have resources close to you who are able to help you understand the material better. ”

Del Hart
 Aerospace Engineering Major

“What I like the most are the people and community at UB! Everyone here is super welcoming and kind. ”

 Mechanical Engineering Major

“Do not be afraid to reach out to people for opportunities. Opportunities will not come to you, you need to reach out.”
9/1/22

Max Gustin
 Electrical Engineering Major

“I enjoy meeting new people in clubs, classes, and on campus. It makes adjusting to school and being away from home so much easier. Especially meeting students in the same major as me and being able to talk about our major and relate to each other.”

Taylor Llanos
 Civil Engineering Major

“Take advantage of the opportunities to gain professional knowledge and get involved on campus. ”

Ibukun Adetola
 Biomedical Engineering Major

“Take advantage of your professor's office hours. Most people are afraid of going to their professor's office hours, but I have yet to have an experience where I went to one of mine and I didn't get something out of it.”
9/1/22

Chester Doskos
 Electrical Engineering Major

“Don't be afraid to get out there and try something new! Stepping out of your comfort zone may be intimidating, but getting involved on campus can open up a whole world of opportunities.”
9/1/22

James Butron
 Civil Engineering Major

“Learn what to eat, and when. During the first part of each semester, there will be lines longer than 40 minutes just to get a salad. However, there are ways to avoid the lines as most students are in class at certain times. The less time you spend in line, the more time you can spend studying and having fun!”
9/1/22

Nate Schin
 Aerospace Engineering Major

“Everyone is just as nervous as you are! Don't be intimidated by everyone seeming to know what to do all the time - they don't!”
9/1/22

Daniella Kata
 Civil Engineering Major

“Participate in research at UB as soon as possible. Most professors are open to undergraduates in their lab even if they have no prior experience. By gaining firsthand experience, you will become a more viable candidate for other opportunities, like internships.”
9/1/22

Teagan Allart
 Chemical Engineering Major

“My advice for future students is to never be shy about asking questions! It may be difficult to do so because of fear of judgment from peers, but in the end, it’s your understanding of the material that matters!”
9/1/22

Qiuxing “Q” Chen
Mechanical Engineering Major

“SEAS has many clubs and extra-curricular activities that will pique the interest of almost any engineering student and are a great way to get involved in the school and meet new people. ”

Have the Ambassadors at Your Next Event

Need help with your next event? Faculty and staff in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences in need of student volunteers for an outreach or recruitment event may request the help of the SEAS Undergraduate Student Ambassadors. Contact the SEAS Office of Undergraduate Education to make arrangements.

Do you know someone who would make a great ambassador?

If there is a student whom you feel exemplifies leadership qualities and enthusiasm for SEAS and their major, please consider nominating them to serve as SEAS Ambassador.
