SOE Today

The school has seven academic departments, with a combined undergraduate student enrollment of over 2,600 undergraduate and 622 graduate students. It offers over 25 academic and professional degree programs.

Departments

The School of Engineering is home to the departments of Biomedical Engineering, Chemical and Biochemical Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Industrial and Systems Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, and Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.

Degrees Offered

The school offers the Bachelor of Science (B.S.), Master of Science (M.S.), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees. Graduate students are technically enrolled in the Graduate School-New Brunswick, and not directly in the School of Engineering. For this reason, all graduate degrees are awarded to a student by the Graduate School-New Brunswick on successful completion of one or more of the degree programs listed below.

  • Applied Sciences - B.S.
  • Bioenvironmental Engineering - B.S.
  • Bioresource Engineering - M.S.
  • Biomedical Engineering - B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
  • Chemical and Biochemical Engineering - B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
  • Civil and Environmental Engineering - B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
  • Electrical and Computer Engineering - B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
  • Industrial and Systems Engineering - B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
  • Materials Science and Engineering - B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
  • Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering - B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
  • Mechanics - M.S., Ph.D.

The SoE also offers a 5 year B.S./M.B.A. program in conjunction with the Rutgers Business School. Students who opt for this program are, however, required to meet certain GPA and GMAT score requirements, and are required to apply to the program in the Spring semester of their Junior year.

Research

The Rutgers School of Engineering is home to several research centers, and is also affiliated with other research centers throughout Rutgers University. These large-scale research centers are typically funded through various New Jersey and federal grants, and also through corporate sponsorships. Also, numerous smaller research laboratories exist within the various academic departments of the SoE.
