ACADEMICS:
COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING

http://ing.uprm.edu/

The Graduate program of the College of Engineering is the key contributor to Research and Development (R&D) activities at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez campus (UPRM). It provides graduate students with experiences in state of the art developments. During the last two decades, the College of Engineering has evolved from a College with emphasis on traditional teaching and community service, to one with a balanced portfolio which also includes a strong research component. One of the most important components in the research activities at the College of Engineering is the existence of several centers which foster a research culture between professors, departments, students and research support staff. These include the Tropical Center for Earth and Space Studies (TCESS), the Program in Research in Computing and Information Sciences and Engineering (PRECISE), the Center for Subsurface Sensing and Imaging Systems (CenSSIS), the Center for Power Electronics (CPES), the Puerto Rico Water Resources and Environmental Research Institute (PRWRERI), the Civil Infrastructure Research Center (CIRC), the Center for Collaborative Adaptive Sensing of the Atmosphere (CASA), the Partnership for Research and Education on Materials (PREM) Center, the Wireless Integrated Microsystems (WIMS) Center, the Mid America Earthquake Center (MAEC), the Environmentally Benign Semiconductor Manufacturing Center and the Transportation Technology Transfer Center. Most of these centers are multidisciplinary, and have close interactions with the industrial sector. They have been an integral part of the level of growth in research activities at the College of Engineering
