Notre Dame College of Engineering

Engineering has been offered at the University since 1873, making Notre Dame the first Catholic university with an engineering program.

The College boasts a long history of engineering developments in a variety of fields -- from the construction of the first hand-driven wind tunnel in the U.S. (aerospace) and the successful transmission of one of the first wireless messages (communications) in the country to the discovery of a new class of actinyl peroxide compounds (energy) and demonstration of magnetic logic (computing).

When the College of Engineering was officially founded in 1920, most of the students were pursuing civil engineering, due to the nation’s need for surveyors and designers of roads, bridges, and railroads. Today, graduate and undergraduate students explore a wide variety of fields as they search for ways to address some of society’s most pressing needs.
