Welcome from the Dean

Welcome to the College of Engineering of North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University! We are proud of the quality of the education and research of our College; and inspired by the innovativeness, capabilities, and achievements of our engineering students, graduates, faculty, and staff. As we continue on our trajectory of excellence, we invite you to visit us to learn more about how you can participate in our future. 

We are located in the heart of Greensboro, North Carolina. Our bachelors, masters, and doctoral degree programs are distributed across six departments – Chemical & Biological & Bioengineering; Civil, Architectural & Environmental Engineering; Computer Science; Electrical & Computer Engineering; Industrial & Systems Engineering; and Mechanical Engineering – and the Interdisciplinary Computational Science & Engineering program. All undergraduate engineering programs in our College are ABET accredited; and the work of our faculty is internationally recognized.

We have a long and distinguished tradition of excellence in engineering and computer science education; and our faculty and students are conducting pioneering research focused on creating globally-relevant solutions and on providing advanced methods and products for improving quality of life.

We are particularly proud of being the home of the National Science Foundation’s Engineering Research Center for Revolutionizing Metallic Biomaterials which conducts collaborative research in the areas of biomedical engineering and nano-bio applications in partnership with an international collaboration of Universities. Together, our College’s educational and research endeavors result in a College of Engineering with an enrollment of over 1,700 undergraduate and graduate students; attracting annual research awards of over $11.8 million dollars (2011-2012).

This is a wonderful time to be a part of North Carolina A&T State University’s College of Engineering. We encourage you to learn more about us and invite you to visit our campus to see first-hand what sets us apart in excellence and education.
