Faculty discoveries push scientific understanding past the boundaries of current thinking and bring to the engineering classroom the most advanced knowledge available. Research in the College of Engineering spans twelve academic units, resulting in a broad range of unparalleled expertise. Comprising traditional disciplines as well as emerging fields, this scientific community offers a wealth of support for both individual and interdisciplinary projects—from applied and engineering physics to theoretical and applied mechanics and all points in between.
