 My name is Joel de Bulio and it is my great privilege to serve as the Dean of the Department of Engineering and Technology. Studying engineering and technology requires a strong foundation in math, science and the humanities, making it a great fit here at the School of Science and Math. Our department offers courses in computer science and engineering from the introductory to the college level and which span a wide range of fields. Our classes in computer science offer experiences in web development, Java, and Python programming, and advanced topics in databases and data structures. Our engineering curriculum offers overviews of biomedical, electrical, mechanical and civil and environmental engineering as well as courses in introductory robotics, architecture, fundamentals and history. Circuits, statics and biomedical instrumentation are available to students meeting the course prerequisites. Many of our courses include an end of term project where you get to apply concepts you learned to a project of your own choosing. Our department proudly hosts the Peter T. Houghton Fabrication and Innovation Lab which encourages hands-on activities that support courses such as our research and research experience courses from all departments and for students to make and create for fun. This lab features a variety of 3D printers, a laser cutter and several large format numerically controlled tools. Our maker space is great for cutting, gluing, soldering and other activities to bring your project from vision to reality. We also encourage students to apply their skills outside of the classroom by sponsoring exciting extracurricular activities such as the Technology Student Association, the National Society of Black Engineers, First Robotics and the Team America Rock Tree Challenge. We encourage all of you to open our course catalog and visit our website to find those courses and activities that resonate with your interests. We look forward to seeing you in August.
