Science in Service to Society

At the College of Nanotechnology, Science, and Engineering, we consider engineering to be “Science in Service to Society.” Our mission is to educate the next generation of engineering and scientific innovators, to conduct leading-edge research of societal significance within and across traditional academic disciplines, and to prepare our students to assume leadership positions in the creation, application, and use of technology. We provide a research-intensive educational experience that is built on rigorous scientific and mathematical fundamentals and prepares students for the arc of a three-decade, or longer, career.
