Rutgers school of engineering industry alumni scholars
The School of Engineering (SoE) at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, was founded in 1914 as the College of Engineering. It was originally a part of the Rutgers Scientific School, which was founded in 1864. The school has seven academic departments, with a combined undergraduate student enrollment of over 2,400 students. It offers over 25 academic and professional degree programs. These include several interdisciplinary programs, such as Bioenvironmental Engineering and Bioresource Engineering with the Department of Environmental Science, and the graduate program in Mechanics.

Departments and programs
The Rutgers School of Engineering is composed primarily of seven academic departments. All of the degree programs offered are certified by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.
In addition, the School also has undergraduate programs in Applied Sciences and in Bioenvironmental Engineering, and also a graduate program in Mechanics. Students who chose to pursue a degree in Applied Sciences also have to option to select a concentration in Packaging Engineering, Engineering Physics, Biomedical Science, or Premed.
Degrees offered
The school offers the Bachelor of Science (B.S.), Master of Science (M.S.), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees. Graduate students are technically enrolled in the Graduate School-New Brunswick, and not directly in the School of Engineering. For this reason, all graduate degrees are awarded to a student by the Graduate School-New Brunswick on successful completion of one or more of the degree programs listed below.
The SoE also offers a 5-year B.S./M.B.A. program in conjunction with the Rutgers Business School. Students who opt for this program are, however, required to meet certain GPA and GMAT score requirements, and are required to apply to the program in the Spring semester of their Junior year.
A combined M.S. and Diploma Course is also offered by the School of Engineering and the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, Belgium.
The SoE is also home to the Rutgers-UMDNJ PhD Training Program in Biotechnology which has received continuous NIH support for >20 years.
Research centers
The Rutgers School of Engineering is home to several research centers, and is also affiliated with other research centers throughout Rutgers University. These large-scale research centers are typically funded through various New Jersey and federal grants, and also through corporate sponsorships. Also, numerous smaller research laboratories exist within the various academic departments of the SoE.
An (incomplete) list of the research centers is provided below:
Student organizations
The School of Engineering has a student governing organization, the Engineering Governing Council (EGC). The EGC functions as a liaison between students and members of the faculty, distributes funds to the various engineering academic societies active within the SoE, and generally represents the students of the SoE in the Rutgers University Community.
Several national and international student and professional engineering organizations also have branches or chapters at the Rutgers School of Engineering, and listed below
