Columbia University: The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science

The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science, as a part of Columbia, a world-class teaching and research university, strives to educate socially-responsible engineering and applied science leaders whose work results in the betterment of the human condition, locally, nationally, and globally.

We are preparing engineering leaders who will solve the problems of the new century, fostering scientific inquiry but never losing sight of its human implications.

The School's programs are designed to produce well-educated engineers who can put their knowledge to work for society. This broad educational thrust takes advantage of the School's links to a great liberal arts college and to distinguished graduate programs in law, business, and medicine.

Through a synergy of teaching and research, we seek to educate a distinguished cadre of leaders in engineering and applied science who will thrive in an atmosphere of recently emerging technologies.
