Information for Future Engineering Students

What makes our programs different from other engineering colleges?

• Our engineering and computer science classes are relatively small and are taught primarily by professors – experts in their fields
• Nearly all of our senior students take the Fundamentals of Engineering exam and have a pass rate of 92%, much higher than the national average
• We emphasize hands-on, real-world design experiences and our students are confident when they enter the professional world upon graduation
• The John C. Wahl Think Tank, our state-of-the-art student center, provides engineering students with all the help and resources they need to succeed academically
• Our attractive campus provides a complete residential college experience (the majority of our students are full-time) where students can choose to live in dormitories, fraternities, or sororities; some of which are exclusively for engineering students. U-Idaho provides a total college experience!
• The top 10% of our entering freshmen class is invited to join Engineering Scholars, an enriching experience for our top achieving students
