Integrate Engineering Into Life
I have been an engineer for nearly 30 years and in that time have seen tremendous changes in the engineering field. Ive also discovered the enormous impact engineering has on every aspect of life, from food to transportation to technology. Engineers drive technology, and technology drives the world in which we live. Everything we touch is a feat of engineering. Engineers conceive, design, invent, create, enhance and improve products, machinery, technologies and processes. And through those efforts, we improve the quality of life around the globe.
But it doesnt happen by magic. And it doesnt just involve inventing things. Students gain the vast amount of experience and knowledge at the College level through classes, student involvement and cultural activities and how they interact with the world around them. At the College of Engineering & Technology, our students get involved on a number of levels:
- Research
- Outreach
- Mentoring
- Study Abroad
- Industry Internships
- Cooperative Education
Through their involvement in such activities, students develop not only a greater understanding of engineering concepts, they also see the impact we engineers have on the world and the people in it. This allows us to improve current products and design better technologies and, in the process, become better citizens in a global environment.
Sincerely,

David H. Allen
