TerrapinSTRONG Undergraduate Onboarding

" All people engaged in the group process are leaders. Inclusive leaders are aware of their own biases, promote and advocate for inclusion, are authentically committed to diversity, and are curious about others, displaying empathy and humility. Inclusive leaders share in the decision-making, are attentive to different cultures, adaptive, and exercise inclusive practices when working with others."

Welcome, Maryland Engineers! The Clark School is excited to welcome you to campus this summer and fall! To support your transition to the Clark School, all new students are required to participate in ClarkLEAD—our signature onboarding program for undergraduate Maryland engineers to help you feel welcomed, connected, and a sense of belonging in the Clark School. Explore your onboarding timeline below:

ClarkLEAD Transfer Welcome - Required for all external transfer students!

The ClarkLEAD Transfer Welcome is a one-day event for internal and external transfer students who were admitted to Maryland Engineering in spring 2025 and fall 2025. The program is designed to develop a sense of community and to broaden your leadership skills. This signature onboarding program, facilitated by current students, faculty and staff, will spark conversations around leadership, diversity and inclusion, and teamwork, as well as the importance of these for engineers and engineering design. We will also feature a number of campus resources and provide an opportunity for you to learn more about research opportunities as well as resources available through Engineering Career Services.
