The Grainger College of Engineering is the engineering college of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. It was established in 1868 and is considered as one of the original units of school.

Campus

The College of Engineering is located at the northern terminus of the University of Illinois occupying the Bardeen Quadrangle, the Beckman Quadrangle, and many nearby areas. Green Street almost perfectly divides the Engineering Campus from the rest of the University. So, engineers and the College of Engineering are often referred to as "North of Green."

UIUC Engineering Hall serves as the primary anchor point for the College of Engineering and houses administrative offices as well as academic facilities. Built in 1894, it is the oldest surviving building on the Engineering portion of campus. It was designed by George Bullard, a University alumnus as part of the University held architecture competition and is an example of the Renaissance Revival style of architecture.

The Bardeen Quad is home to the Grainger Engineering Library, the largest engineering library in the world with over 260,000 physical volumes and a substantial electronic repository. The building costs nearly $30 million and has 135,000 square feet (13,000 m²) of floor space. It serves more than 1.5 million people annually. It offers services, including room reservations, computers, printing, scanning, copying, tutoring, and technology loans.[1]

On 15 April 2019, the College of Engineering was named Grainger College of Engineering after the Grainger Foundation. The Grainger Foundation donated $100 million and an overall donation of $300 million.

Research

The College has the third-highest per-dollar research expenditure in the nation with over $202 million spent annually. The College is home to 26 research centers, 10 major laboratories, and nine affiliate programs. In total, the College employs 408 research faculty members, 2,681 graduate researchers, and over 1,200 staff members.

Engineering at Illinois is the most cited institution in engineering worldwide, with the highest total citations to research papers.[2]Шаблон:Update inline

Honors

In addition to the program as a whole ranking in top five of engineering schools,[3] many of the departments within the College of Engineering are also highly ranked.

Undergraduate rankings

The Undergraduate programs in civil engineering, agricultural & biological engineering, and materials engineering are considered to be the top such programs in the nation. Mechanical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, engineering physics, and environmental engineering consistently rank in the top five such programs in United States. The aeronautical & astronautical engineering, chemical engineering, industrial engineering, and nuclear engineering programs consistently rank within the top ten such programs in the nation.[4]

Graduate rankings

The graduate programs in civil engineering, agricultural & biological engineering, and materials science & engineering offered by the college are considered to be one of the top two programs in their disciplines. Additionally, graduate programs in mechanical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, and environmental engineering consistently rank within the top five such programs in the nation. The graduate programs in aerospace engineering, chemical engineering, nuclear engineering, and physics consistently rank within the top ten such programs in the nation.

Deans of the College of Engineering through the years include:

Engineering Open House

The College of Engineering opens its doors to the public annually during Engineering Open House (EOH), the largest student-run event on the University of Illinois campus. Engineering Open House typically features over 250 student project exhibits, four design contests (College, High School, Middle School, Grade School), appearances by local and national celebrities, entertainment, competitions for visitors, and prizes.

In 2002, Bill Nye was a featured guest at Engineering Open House.[12]

In 2020 and 2021, Engineering Open House was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[13]
