Backed by an historic commitment of $1 billion and under the new leadership of Juan de Pablo as the University’s Executive Vice President for Global Science and Technology and Tandon’s Executive Dean, the Engineering School is entering an exciting new phase to recruit world-class faculty conducting groundbreaking basic and applied research in key areas. We are home to a community of renowned faculty and undergraduate and graduate students united in a mission to understand and create technology that powers cities, enables worldwide communication, fights climate change, and builds healthier, safer, and more equitable real and digital worlds.
