Discovery, design and invention
Notre Dame engineers create knowledge and technology, contributing to the good of society through discovery, design, and invention.
Notre Dame Engineering researchers — faculty, research staff, postdocs, more than 500 Ph.D. students, and undergraduates — work across disciplines within the departments of the College of Engineering and at the forefront of several university-wide centers and institutes. We multiply our impact by partnering with scientists, engineers, and scholars at other universities and research centers and with leaders of industry and government and nonprofit organizations.
