The Compass Center for Career & Calling offers a variety of career exploration experiences, including job shadowing, internships and study abroad opportunities around the globe. 

Northwestern's engineering program offers concentrations in civil, computer, electrical and mechanical engineering. As an engineering student, you’ll regularly engage in hands-on learning experiences, including 3D printing, wooden bridge building, machining, electric circuits, programming, geospatial analysis and traffic simulation. You’ll also study newly developing concepts like AI. Our program has been designed to achieve ABET accreditation, for which it will be eligible upon graduation of the first cohort in 2028.

You can also work toward a master’s degree in engineering by taking advantage of Northwestern’s dual-degree relationship with Washington University of St. Louis, one of the nation’s top engineering schools. Through this arrangement, you can earn an accredited bachelor’s degree in engineering and a master’s degree in computer engineering, data science, or systems science and engineering.
