The Princeton Review concluded of 20 schools with the worst professors, seven are engineering schools. So there's a crisis in engineering education, right? Find out in our extensive coverage and in-depth survey results.
Small Schools Harvey Mudd, Olin, Rose-Hulman Offer Big Results Harvey Mudd, Olin College and Rose-Hulman Institute are engineering schools that offer a successful alternative to the big university model. Full Story Survey Says: U.S. Engineering Education is Pretty Good DN conducted a study in January 2008 to better understand opinions about the quality and value of the education provided to prospective engineers. Read the results and see how they compare to your education experience. Full Story Teaching The New Engineering Skills To get ahead, engineering students will need to go beyond the fundamentals and focus on the cultural and business skills the workplace now demands. Full Story Plastics Engineering Degrees: The Pros and Cons Plastics engineering grads are highly employable, but may lack some versatility if they want to move into a different field. Only one four-year U.S. program is ABET-certified. Full Story Smith College: A Fresh Approach to Engineering Education Many women today don't think about engineering as something to study or a profession. The Picker Engineering Program at the all-female Smith College are working to change that. Full Story Rating the Schools, Teachers: Are Engineering Students Happy? When The Princeton Review’s Best 366 Colleges asked more than 120,000 students to rate their happiness and the quality of teaching at their schools, engineering schools didn’t fare well. But the news isn’t all bad. Full Story
The Princeton Review paints a bleak picture of the state of engineering education - but the photos in our gallery reveal a different sentiment.

By experimenting with the photovoltaic reaction in solar cells, researchers at MIT have made a breakthrough in energy efficiency that significantly pushes the boundaries of current commercial cells on the market.
In a world that's going green, industrial operations have a problem: Their processes involve materials that are potentially toxic, flammable, corrosive, or reactive. If improperly managed, this can precipitate dangerous health and environmental consequences.
With LEDs dropping in price virtually every year, automakers have begun employing them, not only on luxury vehicles, but on entry-level models, as well.

A quick look into the merger of two powerhouse 3D printing OEMs and the new leader in rapid prototyping solutions, Stratasys. The industrial revolution is now led by 3D printing and engineers are given the opportunity to fully maximize their design capabilities, reduce their time-to-market and functionally test prototypes cheaper, faster and easier. Bruce Bradshaw, Director of Marketing in North America, will explore the large product offering and variety of materials that will help CAD designers articulate their product design with actual, physical prototypes. This broadcast will dive deep into technical information including application specific stories from real world customers and their experiences with 3D printing. 3D Printing is
