Grand Challenges: Shaping the Next Generation of Engineers

There are many issues facing the world in the 21st century and beyond. In an effort to address the National Academy of Engineering’s “14 Grand Challenges for Engineering” facing global society in the 21st century, Quinnipiac University's School of Engineering curricula has been officially recognized in helping to address these problems. Behind everything we do is an emphasis on improving sustainability, health, security and joy of living for people all over the world. Students also have the opportunity to participate in the Grand Challenges Scholars program through competing the five competency areas. Students that participate in this program receive an additional certification recognized by the National Academy of Engineers.
