About the School of Engineering
The School’s curriculum emphasizes learning fundamentals while keeping a keen eye on the needs of the changing landscape of the job market. The wide range of multidisciplinary subjects molds the students into an optimal blend of technically skilled and socially responsible citizens who are well-equipped to become leaders in their chosen fields. While specialized technology-centric universities have many departments, being part of a multidisciplinary university, the School’s five primary departments offer a Major program with specializations conforming to current needs.
