Eta Kappa Nu

EKN As chairperson I would first like to take the time to thank my faculty. The undergraduate enrollment has risen slightly in comparison with the numbers from last year.

The North Carolina A&T State University Theta Nu Chapter of Eta Kappa Nu, the electrical engineering honor society, is very active within the Department. The chapter sponsors a number of activities throughout the year, including tutorial sessions, engineering basketball games, and mentoring junior and senior high school students. Members of Eta Kappa Nu are excellent students, each holding an above average GPA.
