One of the ten schools that comprise Tufts University

The School of Engineering is one of the ten schools that comprise Tufts University. The school offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in several engineering disciplines and computer science fields. Along with the School of Arts and Sciences (A&S) and the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, the School of Engineering is located on the university's main campus in Medford and Somerville, Massachusetts. Currently, the engineering school enrolls more than 800 full time undergraduates and 600 graduate students. The school employs over 100 full time and part time faculty members.

Engineering instruction began at Tufts College in academic year 1865 1866, with the introduction of a three year degree program in civil engineering. Students in this program received the degree of civil engineer. In 1890, the Department of Electrical Engineering was created, and in academic year 1892 1893, the course of study was extended to four years. In 1898, the trustees voted to formally establish an undergraduate College of Engineering with Gardner C. Anthony as the first dean. As part of an administrative reorganization in 1904, the College of Engineering became part of the new Faculty of Arts and Sciences, along with the School (later the College) of Liberal Arts, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, and after 1910, Jackson College for Women. To accommodate a high demand for facilities in engineering programs, Anderson Hall opened in 1960 to host facilities and an engineering library. The College of Engineering added graduate study to its curriculum beginning in 1961, with master's degrees available in all four departments. In 1992, the Gordon Institute, the first organization dedicated to the training of leaders in engineering, became part of Tufts University. In 1999, the College of Engineering became the School of Engineering when oversight of graduate engineering programs was transferred from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. As part of the same reorganization the Faculty of Arts and Science became the Faculty of Arts, Sciences, and Engineering (AS&E).
