Engineering Beyond Boundaries
Engineering education is rapidly evolving to prepare students to address highly complex challenges — everything from promoting energy security, to engineering better medicines, to increasing access to clean water.
Engineers today require not only great technical depth within their chosen disciplines, but also interdisciplinary and cultural breadth to tackle these global issues.
At UW–Madison, that means taking our curriculum beyond the boundaries of the traditional engineering degree.
Multicultural experiences— by preparing students to work and succeed in a global economy, across many different countries, cultures and languages.
