🎉 Happy first day of school!

Let’s hear from a current BYU Engineering student! Whether it’s your first day of college or your last first day of college, we can all use a little advice.

“I’m Taylor Syme, studying Engineering here at BYU! Here are a few things I wish I knew before diving into engineering and some advice for incoming students:

- have fun with your engineering skills and build things outside of class! I’ve made a ultralight aircraft, engines, and electrical circus, and much more just for fun, and you can too!

-don’t compare yourself to others! Go at your own pace!”

Check our stories for more advice from Taylor!

Welcome (back) to the College of Engineering — we’re glad you’re here! 💙

As a community of faculty, staff, and students, we extend our deepest condolences to the Fulton family as they mourn the peaceful passing of our college’s namesake, Ira A. Fulton, on August 21, 2026.

Since 1999, Ira and Mary Lou Fulton’s generosity has transformed the BYU College of Engineering, funding scholarships, faculty, and the Engineering Building itself. His legacy of generosity and service will continue to shape the lives of students for generations. Our thoughts and prayers are with his loved ones. 💙

You should try. See how far you can go.

As the new semester approaches, don’t overthink it. Just start. Sign up for the club, pitch the idea, build the thing.

This is your time to figure out what you’re capable of.

What does it take to do something that seems impossible? 🏃‍♂️
 
Sam showed us: grit, determination, and a refusal to give up. He ran 52 laps around the Engineering Complex, despite 100-degree heat and while battling stomach issues, to prove to himself that he could finish what he started.
 
When engineering has its own moments where stopping would be easier or a problem seems impossible to solve, remember Sam. You can do “impossible” things, too. 
 
Send this to someone who needs a little motivation before the school year starts!
