VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Technology
INSTITUTION Virginia State University (VSU) was founded in 1882 in Petersburg, Virginia. It is one of Virginia’s two land-grant institutions and was the first state-supported four- year institution of higher learning for Black Americans in the U.S. Today VSU has a student population of over 5,300 and offers 55 bachelor’s and master’s degrees, two doctoral degrees, and three certificates. Students study and conduct research in one of five schools: the School of Agriculture; the School of Business; the School of Engineering, Science and Technology (SEST); the School of Liberal Arts and Education; and the School of Graduate Studies, Research and Outreach.
COLLEGE/SCHOOL OVERVIEW The School of Engineering, Science
and Technology is focused on solving tough problems. SEST defines success as the growth and discovery of fundamental knowledge and the movement of these ideas and results from the laboratory to the real world. The goal is to transform communities by attracting and retaining
key industries, enhancing economic development, and creating jobs. Our research helps companies improve their products and services for items as diverse as jet engines, copiers, and cutting tools. The school aligns resources and capabilities to the workforce needs of local, regional, and national economies.
