Why Las Vegas is THE Choice

Come experience first-hand opportunity and advancement in one of the fastest growing cities in the Nation! LAS VEGAS IS "ENGINEERING IN ACTION."  Our current students and alumni are in high-demand and are already working on major engineering and computer science projects right here in the valley.

Some of these public and private works projects include:
  • transportation infrastructure
  • water and environmental resources
  • alternative energy sources
  • construction and building design
  • geotechnical engineering
  • homeland security
  • entertainment engineering.
There are numerous outdoor activities that our students participate in such as hiking, skiing, canoeing, and biking. There are also beautiful and scenic attractions around the valley to visit: Mount Charleston, Red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam.
