Program Highlights
Alumni Voices
“Each of my professors was incredibly knowledgeable and motivating… Furthermore, student competitions were a major success because they introduced students to the industry very early on. Most students left competitions with offers or with new contacts.”
Jonathan Healey
Senior Project Engineer at Balfour Beatty Construction
“My degree means so much to me, being a woman in a field where women are so underrepresented makes me value this achievement even more. My degree is one more step towards meeting and empowering women in my field and hopefully inspiring more to follow.” Read the full interview here.
