The UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science (HSSEAS), founded in 1945, is committed to creating a better future for Los Angeles, California, the nation, and the world. Over the years, UCLA Engineering has grown into one of the top engineering programs in the country. Though the school has changed in many ways, it has not wavered from its early vision of developing an engineering program with imagination and integrity. As part of a great public University, the school is committed to a core mission of teaching, research, and service.
UCLA Engineering supports dynamic programs in traditional and new areas of study and research, including bioengineering, embedded networked sensing systems, bio-nano-info technologies, wireless communications and computing, signal processing, sensor technologies, nanotechnology and nanomanufacturing, automated flight and autonomous systems, alternative energy systems, smart structures and materials, and protection of the environment. Partnerships across campus reflect the school’s commitment to a wide range of interdisciplinary activities.
Students receive their education through lectures and gain hands-on experience through laboratories and participation in real-world applications. The undergraduate degree curriculum provides well-rounded exposure to the humanities, social sciences, life sciences, and the fine arts. It also includes a technical breadth requirement, designed for students to gain a working knowledge of a technical field outside their major. The school also recognizes that engineers have the ethical and social responsibility to create, protect, and manage technology. Students are committed to a high standard of achievement and contribute to the overall excellence in engineering at UCLA.
