Engineering

Earlham’s new engineering program is about more than systems and structures—it’s about approaching the messy, complicated problems of our time with a sense of compassion and justice.

Through this program, you will gain the expertise and skills you need to pursue a career in engineering, while benefitting from the perspective-building, life-changing liberal arts education at Earlham provides.

Earlham’s engineering major has been designed to appeal to a diverse range of students, including those who have been historically underrepresented in engineering.

At Earlham, you will expand your knowledge and experience of social, economic and environmental issues. In doing so, you’ll learn how to use engineering to build a better world.  Whether traveling the world or working in our community, you will be immersed in the very questions you will later seek to answer.

This is engineering for good.

As a new engineering program, we are not yet accredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET), but we are following the necessary path to accreditation after our first cohort graduates and will submit our request for review in fall 2026.
