The number of professors teaching at McGill Engineering has grown considerably in recent years, strengthening the Faculty across the board.
Fall 2010
Two institutes were established recently in areas of strategic importance to the Faculty of Engineering: the Institute for Sustainability in Engineering and Design (ISEAD) and the McGill Institute for Aerospace Engineering (MIAE). Among other things, the institutes enhance teaching, improve employment opportunities for students and serve as windows on the world for McGill Engineering.
Spring 2010
Major changes are underway at McGill Engineering that are giving a new look and feel to the 79-year-old Faculty. A $25-million refit to the Macdonald Engineering Building (See FACULTY FACELIFT in this issue) and the presence of greater numbers of top-calibre graduate students are providing the Faculty with important tools to tackle new research challenges and move in new directions.
