The Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College is the oldest professional school of engineering in the United States. Founded in 1867 after a donation by General Sylvanus Thayer, the School comprises both the Undergraduate Department of Engineering Sciences at Dartmouth and a graduate professional school in engineering.
Undergraduate programs emphasize interdisciplinary study in the engineering sciences within the context of a broad-based liberal arts education.
At the graduate level, Thayer School offers degrees from the master of science level through to the doctorate combining scholarship, research, experimentation, problem-solving, and design. It offers a Master of Engineering Management degree with the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration.
