Profiles
The
School of Engineering and Applied Science, established in
1852, has a distinguished reputation for the quality of its
programs. Its alumni have achieved international distinction
in research, higher education, management, entrepreneurship
and industrial development, and government service. Its faculty
leads a research program that is at the forefront of modern
technology and has made major contributions in a wide variety
of fields. The School is comprised of six academic departments:
Bioengineering,
Chemical and Biomolecular
Engineering, Computer
and Information Science, Electrical
and Systems Engineering, Materials
Science and Engineering, and Mechanical
Engineering and Applied Mechanics.
Penn Engineering provides an extraordinary and broad group
of professional masters programs'
that extend the bounds of traditional education in their flexibility
and adaptability to student goals. These programs - many of
which are interdisciplinary - prepare students for the rapid
business and technology changes of the 21st century. Such
curriculum innovation comes naturally to the University of
Pennsylvania, which has long been a leader in engineering
education. Professional programs include an Executive
Master's in Technology Management; Master
of Biotechnology; Master
of Computer and Information Technology; and a Master
of Science in Engineering (M.S.E.) in Telecommunications and
Networking. In addition, an M.S.E.
may be earned in any of our graduate programs offered in our
academic departments.
Research and education form the creative mission of Penn
Engineering. The excitement and discovery of research is open
to all students and is the keystone of our world-renowned programs
from the undergraduate to the Ph.D. level. Research opportunities
range from the core of our disciplinary programs to scholarly
interactions involving the School of Medicine, the School
of Arts and Sciences, and the Wharton School of Business,
to note a few. This environment is further enriched by Penn's
many institutes,
centers, and laboratories.
Penn Engineering is part of the University of Pennsylvania
- the school Ben Franklin founded in Philadelphia over 250
years ago. Our campus is growing with the addition of Levine
Hall for computer science and Skirkanich
Hall for bioengineering. We are a compact campus with
easy access to Penn's other renowned schools like the School
of Medicine and Wharton. Today, Penn has one of the most beautiful
urban campuses in the nation-a campus environment that encourages
interdisciplinary study. Explore our web site and then visit
us. We look forward to welcoming you!
