Inspired by our past, embracing our future

Our founders envisioned a groundbreaking approach to undergraduate STEM education, integrating humanities, social sciences and arts to cultivate well-rounded leaders and compassionate problem solvers. This student-focused model would emphasize hands-on learning, exceptional teaching, and the interplay between science, engineering, and the human condition. Today, we proudly embrace our identity as the liberal arts college of science and engineering.
