The University of Georgia College of Engineering

The University of Georgia College of Engineering Learning. Discovery. Innovation. Committed to a new generation of engineers. Since our founding in 2012, enrollment has grown to more than 2,500 students.

Founded in 1785, the University of Georgia is the nation’s first state chartered university and the birthplace of American public higher education. The College of Engineering is proud to be a part of UGA’s distinguished heritage as well as a dynamic part of the University’s future. ENGINEERING + LIBERAL ARTS

The College of Engineering is one of the fastest growing programs at UGA and one of the f

astest growing public colleges of engineering in the nation. Students and faculty alike are attracted to our setting in a comprehensive, land-grant, research institution that’s consistently ranked among the 20 best public universities in the nation. INNOVATION + DISCOVERY

Built around a model that transcends traditional academic boundaries, the College offers eight undergraduate and seven graduate degree programs. Our research is centered in three Innovation and Discovery Clusters that bring together faculty and students from a wide variety of disciplines. Experiential learning – co-ops, internships, study abroad and undergraduate research – means graduates aren’t simply prepared for the workplace, they’re prepared to lead.

These little fish have a big impact on human neuroscience research.

A UGA study coauthored by College of Engineering professor Peter Kner is among the first to document high-resolution 3D video of a seizure event.

Using zebrafish larvae, a common study species for neuroscience, the researchers captured images of a seizure making its way through the brain using a new high-resolution light-sheet imaging system.

Examining these images in 3D could offer new insights into how seizures form and move throughout different parts of the brain. A better understanding of how the brain operates could inform new treatments for brain diseases and disorders.

The imaging system provides clear images at high speed, enabling fast, high-resolution tracking from brain activity to astronomy.

One last summer experience before we welcome you back next week, Dawgs 🥹

Meet Devin, a mechanical engineering major who wraps up this week on his internship at CM Mission Critical Engineering, LLC in Atlanta, where he's been working on complex MEP (mechanical, electrical and plumbing) systems in data centers across the country.

As we get ready to start a new semester, it's important to remember that the courses you take aren't just filling your time with random info- they can have a big impact on what you're able to do with your degree.

"In spring 2026, I took a building information modeling (BIM) course which gave me a basic understanding of Revit. Having an introduction to Revit really helped me be more successful during my internship," he explained.

What skills are you looking forward to adding to your toolkit this fall? 🧰

Summer 2026 is on its final lap, and Engineering Dawgs are crossing the finish line after internships, co-ops and summer adventures. 🏁

Meet Avery, a mechanical engineering major who spent the summer with Kaulig Racing, working alongside NASCAR Cup Series engineers to advance the team's simulation tools and data analysis capabilities-leading to new insights into race preparation and vehicle dynamics decision-making.

"The skills I developed during my time with UGA Motorsports helped me quickly adapt to the pace of the Cup Series," he said, "and I'm looking forward to returning to Athens with a new perspective that can contribute to on-track success during my final year of Formula SAE competition!"

(Was that a pun, Avery? 🏎️)

There's more to engineering than meets the eye. 🗺️

Meet Lauren, a civil engineering major interning with Thomas & Hutton, contributing to local design projects in Georgia and learning the ins and outs of land development.

"What's unique and interesting to me is all the different factors that go into site design, especially close to the coast. We have to factor in wetlands, flood zones, historical sites, live oak trees that cannot be disturbed and so many other interesting factors."

The experience also reinforced her on-campus learning: "Taking Intro to Graphics and Design with Professor Wineland helped give me an introduction to site planning and grading which have been incredibly helpful during my internship," said Lauren.

We're excited to introduce you to the newest members of the College of Engineering Alumni Board!

These six UGA alumni join a creative crew of 12 engineers dedicating their time and ideas to build lifelong connections between alumni and the UGA College of Engineering. Alumni board members graduated within the past 5 years and help guide the initiatives and efforts of the College, serving as ambassadors for Bulldog Engineering across the nation and their fields.

Welcome Will, Garlon, Ava, Victoria, Jessica and Katie! 🐾
