Since its beginning in 1888, the College of Engineering at NMSU has been a leader in preparing students for rewarding careers and performing cutting-edge research. Today, we offer 23 undergraduate and graduate degree programs and continually update our curriculum to meet the changing needs of the high-tech world. One of our greatest strengths is our extensive research program and our work in sever
al areas has gained widespread recognition and garnered millions of dollars of funding. Building on our strengths, we are actively pursuing projects that contribute toward engineering solutions that will help people and the planet thrive. We are participants in three National Science Foundation Engineering Research Centers: The Center for Re-inventing the Nation’s Urban Water Infrastructure, the Interdisciplinary Center of Research Excellence in Design of Intelligent Technologies for Smart Grids and the Center for Bio-Mediated and Bio-Inspired Geotechnics. Our diverse offering of degree programs gives high-tech employers a broad selection of engineering talent. We foster the entrepreneurial spirit in our students through the Aggie Innovation Space where students can work on projects and receive assistance from their peers. The Learning Communities in Engineering offers tutoring in all engineering subjects and mentoring to students. Students have for their use a number of well-equipped laboratories and research facilities. The quality of our graduates and faculty, the strength of our scholarly programs, along with our contributions to developing the engineering workforce of the future are essential in meeting the challenges of a high-tech future.
