Vanderbilt is home to the oldest private engineering school in the South, combining stellar academics with energizing innovation. All engineering faculty members teach undergraduates, and many students are included in faculty research projects. Enrollment is kept to approximately 1,200 highly qualified undergraduates and 350 graduate students.

The School of Engineering's phenomenal proliferation of research projects in recent years has excited and attracted new faculty from other top research programs, strengthening and expanding the School's skills, programs, talents and opportunities.

What's new: In response to our national reputation and commitment to remain in the forefront of engineering, we have recently completed a $28 million, state-of-the-art facility that incorporates leading technologies in a student-centered environment. Featheringill Hall features a three-story atrium designed to be a focal point for student interaction and social events, as well as more than 50 teaching and research laboratories.
