College of Business and Engineering

There is synergy between engineering and business. The College of Business and Engineering provides opportunities to build connections between the two fields, producing well-rounded graduates who thrive in an interdisciplinary work environment.

My UE degree in Mechanical Engineering instilled in me the ability to isolate the core tenets of a problem and critically think about viable solutions. I remember the dean at the time telling me, “You may never use the specific material we teach you here, but you will learn how to go about solving any problem you encounter.” My MBA degree enhanced my undergraduate Engineering education with business acumen. Years later, I decided to pursue a PhD in Operations Management as the field resides at the intersection of business and engineering.
