Our program equips students to tackle real-world challenges by integrating concepts from chemistry, biology, physics, and mathematics. They gain a dynamic, hands-on learning experience that prepares them to make global impacts.
The Engineering PhD is a cross-disciplinary degree structured around a collaborative model. Students in this program can utilize the full range of academic resources across the entire College of Engineering, rather than being limited to a single department's offerings.
Science and engineering departments beyond the College can participate in this doctoral program, which broadens the student population, strengthens faculty involvement, and increases the academic resources supporting doctoral candidates.
