Top Reasons to Study Computer Science and Engineering at UToledo

Mandatory co-ops.

We’re one of the few engineering programs in the U.S. to require three semesters of co-op experience. This real-world, paid experience makes our graduates more likely to get hired.

Real-world experiences.

Seniors design a solution or prototype for a real client. They also expand their horizons through leadership positions in student organizations, and entrepreneurship and service opportunities.

Entrepreneurship focus.

Incoming freshmen can participate in Freshmen Experience Entrepreneurial Discipline (FEED). Young engineers in FEED learn how to take design projects and ideas of their own to market. Students also can get involved in UToledo’s business incubators, and help CSE startups grow their companies.

UToledo’s Industrial Partnerships Program.

The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science builds relationships with industry through activities such as joint research projects, symposia and short courses. Students get ample opportunity to interact with and learn from industry professionals.

Unique partnership with Lorain County Community College.

Students who want a more affordable option and who can’t get to UToledo’s Main Campus can earn their degrees at LCCC. Three CSE program faculty members and a program director reside at Lorain. Some classes are delivered through interactive video straight from UToledo’s Main Campus.

State-of-the-art labs.

Students have 24-hour, exclusive access to seven engineering computer labs, including a virtual reality lab and a digital logic lab.
