On Campus

Guided Engineering Tour

Please join us for an in-person guided tour of the School of Engineering and Applied Science. On weekdays, while classes are in-session, members of the Tau Beta engineering honor society, who are juniors and seniors who are able to describe their experiences as engineering students at Princeton while providing an overview of the academic programs and our building interiors. Guides will begin the tour promptly at 11:30 a.m. from the SEAS Undergraduate Affairs Office, room C209 in the Engineering Quadrangle (E-Quad), which is K3 on the campus map.  Tours last 45 minutes to an hour.  Unfortunately, we are unable to offer guided tours on weekends, during Reading Period (just before exams) and exams, or during breaks. Advanced registration is required.

Self-led Engineering Tour

For visitors who are unable to fit our 11:30 a.m. guided tour into their busy Princeton visit or are unable to come when classes are in-session, we offer our self-guided tour, which covers the same territory as the guided tour just without the live student guide.  No pre-registration is required. The leaflet describing the self-directed tour and its route can be picked up just outside the SEAS Dean’s Office suite on the main corridor of the C-wing, just next to the E-Quad Café. The self-led tour can be done at any time that the building is open, Monday through Friday, but we ask that you do not enter labs or offices unless invited by a member of the faculty or staff.
