Prospective Undergraduate Students
UToledo is one of the most comprehensive universities in the U.S. The College of Engineering offers 14 engineering bachelor's degrees and 15 engineering master's and doctoral degrees in some of the most in-demand fields in engineering.
Direct admittance. No pre-engineering classes. Start engineering classes and design work your freshman year.
Three required co-ops. Our focus is on hands-on learning and entrepreneurship. Get paid while learning the skills you need to succeed. Many co-op employers hire their students for full-time jobs. Our special integrated coop program lets students not only gain a full year of work experience that will let them land a job upon graduation but also earn on average $10,000 per semester in salary. As such, many UToledo engineering students graduate without debt. Co-ops are optional for engineering technology students.
We are affordable. Our tuition is one of the lowest in the state because UToledo is committed to launching our students' careers at UToledo. In addition, our successful engineering alumni have donated significant funds to allow us to award generous merit and need-based scholarships. As such, the net cost of tuition plus fees is also one of the lowest in the state.

What's the difference between Engineering Science and Engineering Technology?
- Engineering technology is more hands-on. It's based more on applying what you learn in the classroom than on theory and research.
- Math classes are more algebra-based in engineering technology.
- Co-ops are optional for engineering technology students.
UToledo offers five engineering technology bachelor's degrees. All are accredited by ABET, which is unique for engineering technology programs.
As technology becomes more important, our engineering tech alumni are as sought after as our engineering science graduates.

The Soehnlen family from North Canton have started their own Rocket tradition: all three siblings are majoring in bioengineering at The University of Toledo. “Medicine is inseparably linked to technological progress. Physicians need to be adept with emerging technologies integral to patient care, and when they can articulate clinical demands and collaborate seamlessly with engineers that creates a bridge to groundbreaking medical advancements and enhanced patient quality of life," Sophia shared.

“In December 2023, I graduated summa cum laude with my bachelor’s in chemical engineering,” Kummar said. “During my bachelor’s, because I was enrolled in the chemical engineering B.S. to M.S. track, I started taking graduate-level classes before I graduated. So, this year I will complete my master’s in chemical engineering.
