Featured Programs
Our ETHOS program allows engineering students to apply their engineering skills to real-world problems using appropriate technology.
The ETHOS CenterOur Minority Engineering Program provides the mentorship and support our students need to become successful engineers. It's one reason our graduation rate for underrepresented minorities is significantly higher than other Ohio universities, both public and private.
Minority Engineering Program
