The Institute
of Technology (IT)—created in 1935
by bringing together the University’s programs
in engineering, mining, architecture, and chemistry—has
become one of the premier colleges of its kind in the
nation.
Today, IT comprises 12 departments and
24 research
centers that encompass engineering,
the physical sciences, and mathematics.
Our academic programs are consistently ranked
among the best
in the nation.
From the
University’s
earliest years, IT departments and programs played
a prominent role in its transformation
from preparatory school to one of the country’s
leading public universities. As science and technology
reconfigure our world, IT is working to ensure that
Minnesota will be in the vanguard of emerging technologies
and groundbreaking scientific research.
Our educational
mission undergirds everything we do. IT’s motto—“Inventing
Tomorrow”—is
embodied in our faculty, students, and alumni. They
are the visionaries who will develop new technologies,
establish new businesses, and educate the next generation
of leaders.
Welcome to the future—the University of Minnesota
Institute of Technology. |
