Engineers design humanity’s future

At Saint Louis University, we are the doers, the makers, the problem solvers.

It might be the robotic device we develop that makes surgery less invasive, the improvements we create for public safety networks, the infrastructure we design to provide clean water, the non-opioid solutions we discover to treat neuropathic pain or the next-generation of pilots we educate to lead the future of aviation.

At the School of Science and Engineering, you’ll gain the skills to become a technically proficient and socially responsible leader. We prepare you to be a practitioner, a leader and a thinker ready to change the world.
