Engineering Peer Tutoring is back for the Fall 2026 semester and officially begins Monday, August 31!

Our peer tutors are ready to help students with a wide range of engineering, math, physics, chemistry, and other foundational courses. Tutoring is free and available to all engineering students in the Peer Tutoring Center (EA 302A).

I have attached the Fall 2026 Peer Tutoring Schedule, which includes each tutor’s availability and the courses they can support.

We will also keep the current tutoring schedule posted on the Herff College of Engineering website, so you can always check there for the most up-to-date information. The website also includes a link to online tutoring for students who need additional options:

Students, please take advantage of this resource early and often. You do not need to wait until you are struggling in a class to visit a tutor. Stop by to work through homework, review a difficult concept, prepare for an exam, or simply have someone help you make sure you are on the right track.

Faculty and staff, please share the schedule and tutoring website with your students and encourage them to utilize these resources throughout the semester.

We look forward to seeing students in EA 302A and to another great semester of peer tutoring!

There is a new process for late registration for Fall 2026.

• Students will no longer need to acquire instructor approvals and submit Tiger Help tickets to be registered in classes during the second week of the term.
• Online registration for full term classes will be available to students for two weeks into the term – through September 4 at 11:59 p.m. (Online registration usually ends the Friday of the first week.)
• Faculty will automatically be notified by email during the second week that a student added their class.
• Faculty can deny students registering for their class the 2nd week if they feel the student has already missed too much material to be successfull.

This year, Herff College of Engineering is making an exciting change by expanding Engineering Day to two events for the first time ever.

Herff will welcome students in grades 3-8 for a special Fall eDay on October 23, 2026, marking the first time that Herff has hosted two eDay events in one academic year. The special event follows Herff's February eDay which saw more than 700 students from across the Mid-South take part in dozens of competitions, activities and demonstrations.

Those competitions will once again be offered in October to our younger students and walk-up STEM activities will be available for all to enjoy.

Competitions at Herff's Fall 2026 eDay will include MLGW's A Blazing Race, Coding Challenge, Egg Drop, Flash Build, Transportation K'Nex Challange, Penny Boat, Spaghetti Structure and Artificial Grasping Hands.

Learn more about those competitions here.
