Schools and Colleges Overview

School of Engineering

With a faculty known for research in areas as diverse as bionic limbs and traffic safety, the School of Engineering is devoted to training the next generation of innovators and inventors. In the New York metropolitan region, the school is ranked by U.S. News & World Report as third for undergraduate engineering, behind only Columbia and Princeton, and fourth for graduate engineering, behind only Columbia, Princeton, and NYU. The school excels in such fields as biomedical engineering, industrial engineering, civil and environmental engineering, electrical and computer engineering, and materials engineering. Students gain specialized knowledge demanded by 21st-century engineering projects and research. Additional learning opportunities are provided by the school’s research units, such as the Wireless Information Network Laboratory (WINLAB) and the Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation. And, as a professional school within Rutgers, the School of Engineering offers the best of both worlds—a close-knit group of highly motivated students and faculty and the extensive offerings of a major public research institution.
