The Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture is one of eleven colleges at Washington State University.
History
[edit ]The Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture was established in 1917 as the College of Mechanical Arts and Engineering upon the reorganization of the State College of Washington,[1] but its roots trace back to the original establishment of Washington State University in 1890 that included a mechanical engineering program.[2] The college was renamed in 2014 in recognition of Gene Voiland, a 1969 alumnus of the college, and his wife Linda's ongoing contributions to the college and industries.
Academic departments and programs
[edit ]The college is structured into five departments:
- The Gene and Linda Voiland School of Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering
- Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering
- School of Design and Construction, with programs in architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, and construction management
- School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
- School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering
