What are some unique Engineering opportunities at Cornell?

I intend to apply to Cornell as a freshman for Fall 2016. I would like to study Engineering and therefore, want to know some special/differentiating features about Cornell’s College of Engineering.
Thank you!

Project Teams! There’s a wide variety of them from Mars Rover to ChemE Car to CUSD and many more. Project Teams are student run teams that specialize in certain engineering projects that you can get involved in as soon as your first semester, but they’re tough to get into. They all provide good research and engineering application experiences.
