At Iowa State's College of Engineering, our goal is to provide a solid foundation in science, a firm understanding of engineering practice, and a keen awareness of human and social issues. We offer an education that develops students' thinking patterns so they can arrive at imaginative, rigorous solutions to many different problems. Our program combines learning and practice, enabling students to embark on challenging, satisfying, and diverse professional careers. In addition to classroom instruction, students are involved in a number of research projects and experiential learning opportunities. Additionally, over 30 engineering-related student organizations provide opportunities for learning and leadership experiences.
Engineering students do a lot of interesting things, in class and out.
Undergraduate classes have designed robots, exercise equipment, and tourist attractions. They have solved a manufacturer's problems with floor tiles. Student groups have designed concrete canoes, solar cars, and bridges. All of these unique opportunities prepare engineering graduates to meet the ever-changing technological demands of the future.
