College of Engineering research enhances learning in and beyond the classroom at the University of Maine. UMaine Engineering undergraduate and graduate students benefit from research-based learning in the classroom, laboratories, and in the field. Many students participate in corporate internships where they can apply their problem-solving skills to help companies move ahead. UMaine Engineering students diverse and in-depth research experiences make them attractive to employers across the state and around the world. We are increasingly able to bring research experiences to Maine s youth while they are in elementary, middle, and high school.
Young students can attend summer camps or other special events on campus.
Other youths will benefit from school visits by Engineering faculty and students. Our research is a means of encouraging Maine s next generation to attend college and hopefully consider engineering as a career. We re proud of the research conducted by Maine Engineering faculty, staff, and students . UMaine Engineering s research faculty deserve special recognition for their efforts. Most spend hours in laboratories, the field, and on-site at companies throughout Maine and New England while carrying full teaching loads and participating in public service activities.
