Strategic Vision
The complex problems surrounding the nexus of cities, water, and energy will challenge engineers for decades, and we are leaders in developing innovative solutions.
Architectural Engineering
We all need buildings where we can work, learn, live, shelter and heal. Architectural engineers at UT Austin learn to design sustainable, healthy, and structurally resilient buildings of the future.
Civil Engineering
Civil engineers are global leaders in building a better life for humankind. They design, construct and maintain the physical fabric of cities and help protect the natural environment from stresses.
Environmental Engineering
Human impact on the environment increases as the world’s population grows. Environmental engineers at UT Austin help decrease the sphere of human influence so that the earth can sustain future generations.
