Michigan Engineering

For students excited about the potential of technology, there's no better place to learn and explore than the University of Michigan College of Engineering. Michigan Engineering offers a rare combination of high-quality engineering scholarship, a broad scope of college and university opportunities, and large-scale impact.

Michigan Engineers-at the graduate and undergraduate levels-learn how to apply the latest developments in technological thinking to the world's major problems. Students learn about and participate in pioneering research in a variety of disciplines, including nanotechnology and integrated microsystems, cellular and molecular biotechnology, and information technology. With 11 departments, interdisciplinary and international programs, more than a dozen student team projects and nearly 80 liberal arts minors to choose from, the College offers future engineers an unparalleled range of opportunities. As a result, students leave Michigan prepared for leadership roles in traditional engineering functions as well as in business, medicine, law and teaching.

The College's faculty is composed of scholars who are among the best in their fields, including 60 National Science Foundation Career Award recipients and 21 current or emeritus faculty members of the National Academy of Engineering. Faculty research possibilities are expanded by the University's 19 schools, colleges and divisions. Interdisciplinary research is a hallmark of Michigan Engineering, particularly between the College and the schools of Medicine, Business, and Information. (Michigan is one of only two universities in the nation with top-ranked engineering, medical and business schools.) This research and other research within the College make a practical difference in society. The College's Technology Transfer Office works closely with faculty to put research into the hands of people.
