Welcome to the page of the College of Engineering and Technology at Bradley University. The focus of the College of Engineering and Technology at Bradley University is engaging, hands-on, team-based engineering education. Our faculty have achieved a high level of technical competence in their field, and are committed to teaching and mentoring students. Some of this hands-on activity is participation in student projects such as the ASCE Concrete Canoe and Steel Bridge Competition, the SAE Formula car competition, and participation in the University's Exposition of Student Projects. Virtually all our senior projects are industry supported real problems for which the student teams provide real engineering solutions. With available co-op positions, summer internships, and our unique industry practicum program, our students can gain valuable "on the job" experience that makes them sought by industrial employers.

Our alumni feature today is Thomas Aguilar, a Manufacturing Engineering graduate who currently works at Caterpillar in Engineering and Operations Management.

Thomas says, "I have successfully undertaken roles in Engineering and Operations Management at multiple facilities across the country for Caterpillar. I’ve designed, procured, and deployed custom large-scale technology solutions that have transformed facilities making them more efficient and safer. Bradley IMET prepared me thoroughly by not only giving me the technical skills to understand systems and data, but also the 'people' skills to effectively handle change management."

Congratulations on building such a successful career, Thomas. We love to hear how our Bradley engineering students are making a difference in their workplaces all over the world.🅱️

Meet Winona Hearne, a graduate from Bradley University’s Class of 2024, with a major in Civil Engineering and a minor in Spanish. 🎓🌟 Now thriving in her role as an Assistant Project Manager at Harmon, Inc. in Chicago, Illinois.

Winona's favorite classes at Bradley were Hydrology and Hydraulics with Dr. Ashraf, who brought real-life experiences into the classroom. Her time at Bradley taught her valuable lessons in adapting to intensive coursework and prioritizing effectively. Bradley University equipped Winona with essential collaboration skills.

"I learned how to effectively communicate and work with people who have different work ethics," she explained. This ability to collaborate is key in her role at Harmon, where teamwork drives project success.
‍
Advice to her freshman self: "Don't take the little things for granted, but always keep the big picture in mind. Being present is valuable, but having insight into what's coming next can save future headaches. It's all about balance."

Thank you for sharing your journey with us Winona. We are so proud of you.👏
