College of Engineering, Technology & Computer Science

Dream.

Design.

Develop and build.

Follow your curiosity and bring your imagination to life through the engineering design experience and exciting academic programs in the College of Engineering, Technology, and Computer Science at Tennessee State University.

Expand your skills in critical thinking, problem solving, knowledge interpretation, and multi-disciplinary teamwork. Immerse yourself in research and analysis. Appreciate the impact of technology on our multicultural society and global economy. Apply your passion for mathematics and natural sciences as you learn to economically combine materials and forces of nature while making the world a better place.

Start early by signing up for pre-college and summer programs to experience real-world engineering challenges. Choose from the AFRL Robotics and Sensors Camp, the General Motors Engineering Technology Institute, the Raytheon Engineering Science Academy, the Summer Transportation Institute, or the TLSAMP Alliance Summer Bridge Program.

For more than half a century, we have provided a quality education in engineering and technology... with a mission to increase the diversity of tomorrow's technical workforce.  We challenge you to investigate and inquire about our programs, and become part of a tradition.

Put yourself on the path to success at TSU with our academic support programs that offer mentorships, teaching assistance, computer-based tutorials, skill development workshops, and fundamentals of engineering (FE) reviews. You’ll also benefit from corporate information nights where you can network with potential employers, some of whom belong to our Industrial Cluster professional development group.

Participate in our distinguished lecture series, Love-in-Action seminars, professional development seminars, and other College events and activities. Or join one of our many professional engineering and technology associations that are part of the College’s Student Leadership Council. 

Take advantage of partnerships with industry, other universities, and national laboratories through our Engineering Research Institute (ERI) and explore new frontiers of knowledge in topics ranging from neural-fuzzy probabilistic systems applied to turbine engines, airfoil designs, and aircraft structure materials to the study of quantity and composition of landfills to help reduce waste and recover recyclable materials—or the topic you’ve been investigating on your own for years.
