About the School of Engineering
Engineering that Matters
The University of Dayton is a national top-tier research Catholic, Marianist University.
At the School of Engineering, we offer a great technical engineering education and focus on educating the whole person. We value collaboration, community-engaged learning and adaptation to change and strive to develop engineers who are socially and globally aware, understand business and entrepreneurship, are prepared to take on leadership roles and are conscious of the consequences of their work — to society, the environment and the profession.
