Cleveland Is an Engineering Town. Always Has Been.
Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals are two of the most influential medical centers in the country. NASA Glenn Research Center is one of NASA's primary research facilities. Parker-Hannifin, Eaton, Sherwin-Williams, Lubrizol and Lincoln Electric are Fortune 500 companies with deep engineering roots. All of them sit within an hour of CWRU's Cleveland campus.
This is the city where the Case School of Engineering has been doing engineering work for nearly 150 years. It's also the soil your degree is rooted in, even if you never leave home to earn it.
What Cleveland Means for Your Degree
Our programs are 100% online, which means you may never set foot in Cleveland. But the engineering work happening here shapes your education in ways you'll feel from day one.
Your faculty's research is funded by, and conducted with, the institutions and companies right around the corner. The problems you study in your courses are the problems being solved at Cleveland Clinic, NASA Glenn and Parker-Hannifin right now. The alumni network you join includes the engineers running technical work at companies you'd recognize.
This is what "industry-connected" looks like in practice. It’s not a name-drop in a brochure, but an education shaped by a university that pulls in more than $600 million in research funding every year.1
