Who We Are
The University of Alberta's Faculty of Engineering prepares the next generation of engineers by giving our undergraduate and graduate students an unparalleled education with world-class instructors, hybrid learning environments, hands-on lab and field experience, and co-op opportunities.
With strengths in research and teaching across energy and minerals, climate and the environment, and emerging and advanced technologies, we prepare students and researchers to make groundbreaking discoveries and contribute to a better world.
What We Do
Let’s start at the beginning,
where anything is possible...
We live in a world where everyone tends to honour the results and focus on the successes. The spotlight always shines on the accomplishments, when everything is said and done. And while all these things are undeniably important, we tend to shift our focus to the first step. To the place that uncovers the unknown. Where ideas and possibility drive us toward making the world a better place. That was our mindset as we approached the strategic planning process for the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Alberta.
Our Vision: To be the most daring engineering community on the planet.
Our Mission: We are engineers united by our unwavering dedication to solving the world’s greatest challenges and building a better future for society.
We are: Driven. Trailblazing. Curious. Supportive. Grounded. Considerate.
