Overview

The College of Engineering is home to five departments, eight degree programs, more than 80 faculty, and approximately 3,200 students. Located in the Auburn Science and Engineering Center, we are home to one of the oldest traditional co-op programs in the country in which students gain valuable, practical work experience in between periods of rigorous academic coursework. The co-op program successfully maintains and establishes relationships in private industry and with government agencies all over Ohio and around the United States. The college’s faculty is an assembled group of nationally and internationally known professors, researchers and staff members. Even as many faculty work around the clock, they still provide caring, individual attention to students. Teaching and advising are taken seriously to provide each student with the greatest opportunity to succeed. The University is surrounded by excellent cultural diversity and post-academic opportunities for our future engineers. Located in Northeast Ohio, Akron is home to several small and large industries, as well as nearby government laboratories.
