WELL Resources

The Sidney Lu Mechanical Engineering building is the first facility on any University of Illinois campus to attain WELL Certification, based on the 10 concepts developed by the International WELL Building Institute.
This certification requires the formation of a MechSE WELLness Committee that stewards and
promotes wellness within the department to maintain our WELL Certification.

WELL Resources for the MechSE Community

MechSE Students

Counseling Center 
McKinley Health Center
Self-care Supplies
Psychological Services Center
The Autism Program

MechSE students are dedicated to learning, exploring, and eventually graduating, but before any of this can happen, they need to be WELL--physically, mentally, and emotionally. 

MechSE faculty and staff

Faculty/Staff Assistance Services 
Campus Wellbeing Services 
Psychological Services Center

MechSE faculty and staff face their own challenges, ones that can prove extremely daunting, and WELLness is just as important for them. 

 


We urge everyone in the MechSE community to take care of themselves and to consider using the resources available. 
If you are unsure of the best resource, or you know of a resource that would be beneficial for us to list on this page,
email mechse-wellness@illinois.edu.
