International programs in engineering

The fact that the horrific murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others in the Black community are still occurring today is a testament to the work that needs to be done in order to create a world in which these injustices are no longer a regular occurrence. Announcements October 1, Examine engineering through a global lens. This 1 credit course explores the roles of culture and context in identifying and solving engineering problems ENGR is required for the International Minor, but is open to all students interested in building a foundation to successful engineering in an intercultural context Questions?

UIC Engineering works with about 30 partner universities in China to enable their students to complete all or part of a degree program at UIC. China program participants may choose to study biomedical engineering, bioinformatics, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical and computer engineering, industrial engineering, materials engineering, or mechanical engineering. The following formats are available:.

At the end of the two-semester program, students are issued official UIC transcripts in order for them to receive a bachelor degree from their home university in China. Then they can complete the requirements for a master of science degree in the fifth year, earning an MS from UIC at the end of that year. Have questions about the China program?

Please email the program coordinator, Derong Liu, PhD, at derong uic. Students who have completed our Italy and China partnership programs report that the experience helped them in the following ways:.

For example, earning both a bachelor of science and master of science degree often takes five and a half years in the United States and six and a half to seven years in China. UIC charges competitive program fees to students from partner universities.

This increases the financial accessibility of a UIC education. The success of our international students is paramount. Steven and Connor. Justin Combs BS, Biomedical Engineering; BA, German— was attracted to the International Engineering Program due to the opportunity to spend a year in Germany taking engineering classes and completing an internship, since as he notes:.

At the Technical University of Darmstadt, he discovered that biomedical engineering is actually split into Medical Technology, which focuses more on the electrical engineering side, and Sports Science, which is more related to the biomechanical aspects of Biomedical Engineering that he is interested in. Combs completed his internship at the Institute for Molecular Biology in Mainz, but he also spent a month between his studies and work in the Alps enjoying winter sports.

Combs said of his experience in the IEP:. My time in Germany had a profound impact on my mentality and outlook on life. Nicholas Broadbent graduated summa cum laude and first in his class from the University of Arkansas with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and a Bachelor of Arts in German.

During his time in Germany, Nicholas worked as an intern in powertrain technology and business development at Mercedes-Benz world headquarters. Of his time in the IEP, Nicholas says:. The IEP allowed me to achieve a lifelong dream of studying abroad and engineering at Mercedes-Benz world headquarters--and prepared me for success as a PhD candidate at Stanford. Herein, Nicholas is focused on developing machine learning algorithms to enhance the safety and performance of autonomous vehicles.
