Innovations in Engineering and Applied Science
Engineering research at Michigan Tech spans nano through global scales, embracing environmental, economic, and societal sustainability.
Our goal is to bring real enhancements to the quality of life throughout the world.
Our faculty, staff, and students discover new knowledge, design new devices and systems, and deliver solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems in energy, health, water, security, and mobility.
Sustainability is infused into all of our programs.
Much of the work we do is inspired by our proximity to Lake Superior and the unique biodiversity of our region. Our innovative approach to engineering education actively involves students in hands-on learning opportunities, leadership, research, and entrepreneurship.
