Leadership at the College of Engineering and Applied Science

The UC College of Engineering and Applied Science is leading the way into a new era of innovation and impact, both in student experience and research.

Known as an innovator in engineering education since inventing cooperative education in 1906, the college is taking new bold steps – creating student support services, new tracks of study, enhanced connections with industry, and new partnerships in research.

We do not shy away from failure. We try things, fail, learn, repeat, then innovate. We compete on the highest stages of research, academics and industry. This competition is hard but it is also fun. We will never stop striving for excellence in everything we do.

Students come first in everything we do, from curriculum to involvement in research. Our faculty and staff would impact any business or lab. We all choose to be at UC for the students.
