Undergraduate Programs

Through hands-on learning and real-world experience, graduates of the Inamori School of Engineering are ready to make a difference.

Hands-on learning begins on the first day of classes. All first-year students tackle complex engineering problems in the Introduction to Engineering class, proposing new solutions to some of the world's biggest challenges, such as clean water, affordable energy, and improved healthcare. In the first-year Engineering Explorations labs, students have an opportunity to learn what different engineering majors do while getting access to some of the best design tools and testing equipment available.

Real-world experience provides our students with a competitive edge. Many courses feature project-based assignments where students work on teams to find solutions to open ended problems. Undergraduate students have unprecedented access to state-of-the art research and design facilities both through formal classes and optional assignments in professors' research labs. AU's Career Development Center helps students secure summer internships and co-operative education assignments. The engineering co-op program allows students to earn 3 units of college credit while working full-time at a company for 6-8 months earning competitive wages. Learn more.

While most of our students are enrolled as traditional full-time students, the School also offers a selection of distance-learning courses to students who are working professionals pursuing their degree on a part-time basis. Learn more.
