GW Engineering is a preeminent engineering school with recognized and differentiated strengths in high-quality education and high-impact research that leverage our competitive advantages and our diverse community. These strengths emerge from the synthesis of technical expertise, a broader perspective, and our unique location in the nation’s capital, empowering our faculty, students, and alumni for

leadership, innovation, and societal impact. This “engineering and…” mindset drives GW Engineering to partner with other GW schools and colleges and with companies and government agencies around DC and the world to connect engineering to other disciplines and to responsibly translate innovations to society. GW Engineering offers Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral degrees from 6 academic departments: Biomedical Engineering, Civil & Environmental Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical & Computer Engineering, Engineering Management & Systems Engineering, and Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. In addition to providing technical depth, our academic programs curate “engineering and…” learning experiences for our students, such as courses and projects with other schools across campus, research experiences in our state-of-the-art Science and Engineering Hall laboratories, internships and jobs at companies and government agencies around the globe, innovation and entrepreneurial experiences in the GW Innovation Center, and study abroad programs with our many international partners. GW Engineering also offers several successful online graduate programs, which primarily serve working professionals. The most popular programs include “engineering and…” themes such as Cybersecurity Policy & Compliance and Engineering Management.

Meet Maddie Wilson, a junior studying Engineering Management and Systems Engineering. This year, she’s taken her GW experience to new heights by building real-world skills on the GW Rocket Team and supporting first‑year students through the SEAS Student Peer Advisory Network, or SEASSPAN, where she’s formed meaningful friendships.

Thanks to donor support, Maddie has had opportunities she never imagined possible, from hands-on engineering projects to leadership experiences that are shaping her future. Every gift, no matter the amount, opens doors for students like Maddie to take a leap, try something new, and approach every challenge with confidence.
