How can we harness the power of emerging technologies? Where will the latest scientific discoveries take us? What are the social ramifications?
Engineering skills are highly sought after by all kinds of businesses, and the opportunities for professional success are limitless. This century will demand innovation, problem solving, and teamwork. RIT’s Kate Gleason College of Engineering will prepare you to make an impact.
We have an outstanding record of achievement in engineering education, producing graduates who are well versed in current engineering practice, educated to lead technical innovation and develop next-generation products and processes, and dedicated to continual improvement in their professional work. Four major principles distinguish an RIT engineering education and drive everything we do. They are:
At RIT Dubai, an engineering education is based on a strong foundation in mathematics and science followed by courses emphasizing the application of this knowledge to your specific engineering discipline. Each program incorporates a balance of engineering theory and practical applications with an emphasis on problem solving and design methods. Since engineering decisions are rarely made without considering ethical and socioeconomic impacts, a portion of the curriculum is also devoted to the study of liberal arts.
Electrical Engineering
Electrical engineers synthesize science, math, technology, and applications-oriented design into consumer products and devices, microprocessors, computers, electronic components, signal processing, microwaves, telecommunications, robotics, power systems, transportation systems, and more.
From technology development to technology application, the innovations of electrical Engineers are shaping the future. With a shortage of electrical engineering talent in the job market, demand for RIT alumni remains strong each year.
Mechanical Engineering
From rockets to robots, power plants to biomechanical parts, mechanical engineers put both energy and machines to work. Wherever there is motion, you will find their innovations making an impact on modern life.
In your program at RIT Dubai, you will be exposed to the essentials of mechanical engineering, from learning advanced computer-aided engineering tools to manufacturing parts. Computer-aided design (CAD), for example, gives you the skills you need to convey design ideas in a 3-D solid model. Modern design tools and software used throughout our curriculum are the same as those used in industry today, offering excellent preparation and background for your career.
