Teaching is our first priority.
All of our undergraduate students participate in hands-on summer internships. Over fifty percent of our students receive financial support through our Paper Technology Foundation and other scholarships .We welcome you to visit us on campus to learn about the opportunities in paper, printing, and chemical engineering. If you are a prospective student , you will learn that we offer scholarships and high paying jobs upon graduation. We will mentor and support our faculty and graduate students so that we are recognized, through our research publications and success of our graduate students, as the principal source in the world for graduate level engineers and scientists with research expertise in coating and printing. We will ensure that our education and research laboratories and pilot plants have the appropriate modern equipment to support the academic missions of the Department and to serve our industrial clients with distinction.
