Exploring Programs at the Tagliatela College of Engineering
The Tagliatela College of Engineering (TCoE) at the University of New Haven provides a diverse range of undergraduate and graduate programs in engineering and the applied sciences. These programs are designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and entrepreneurial mindset needed to address the challenges of the 21st century and beyond. With a focus on innovation, hands-on learning, and real-world experience, TCoE prepares students for success in a variety of dynamic career paths.
A Multidisciplinary Foundation
To operate effectively in today's workforce, engineers need to have a multidisciplinary perspective along with substantial disciplinary depth. The faculty of the Tagliatela College of Engineering have developed an innovative approach to achieve this perspective: The Multidisciplinary Engineering Foundation Spiral Curriculum.
The Tagliatela College of Engineering (TCoE) offers a variety of programs in engineering and the applied sciences. These two areas encompass a number of dynamic professions in which practitioners use their knowledge, judgment, and creativity to address some of the most important and interesting challenges facing society. These challenges and the changing face of engineering will shape the world of the twenty-first century - a world of exotic materials, new sources of energy, staggering telecommunications and computing capabilities, cybernetic factories, and needed public works. Few professions can match engineering for its challenge and excitement or for its essential spirit of play.
Bachelor of Science Programs
The Tagliatela College of Engineering offers diverse Bachelor of Science (B.S.) programs, each designed to provide students with a strong foundation in their chosen field. These programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, ensuring their quality and relevance to industry standards.
Biochemistry
The B.S. in Biochemistry program integrates courses in biology and chemistry to give you a holistic view of how chemical interactions influence biological systems.

Civil Engineering
The tools you need for success in civil engineering are the tools you’ll find in our bachelor’s program. As you become steeped in a climate that inspires innovation, you’ll broaden and deepen your knowledge through a painstakingly designed, interdisciplinary curriculum.
Computer Engineering
Computer engineering involves the design and development of computer hardware and software and an understanding of how the computer and its devices interact - which is why computer engineering is closely allied with electrical engineering and computer science. Because specific technologies so quickly pass their "sell-by date," our programs supply the strong foundation in mathematics and computing that enables you to keep pace with what’s new and what’s coming up in the field.
Computer Science
The University of New Haven's Cybersecurity program provides a different focus from our computer science program, concentrating on the hands-on aspects of applications development and web design, or network administration.
Cybersecurity
Because the degree pulls in multiple disciplines - electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, and cybersecurity (for those who choose that concentration) - you will be able to problem solve and pioneer, envision and invent beyond the boundaries that engineers in the past were limited to with their narrower focus. A whole new set of career opportunities opens up as well. The university is a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Operations (CAE-CO) allowing students in computer science and cybersecurity & networks programs to earn an NSA Cyber Operations designation along with their bachelor's degree by fulfilling specific course requirements.
Electrical Engineering
The University of New Haven offers a broad, career-oriented degree in the exciting and dynamic field of electrical engineering.

Game Development
Game development is a multi-disciplinary field, and you must understand each of the disciplines that go into it.
Industrial and Systems Engineering
The world runs on systems - transportation systems, food-supply systems, communication systems, government systems, and many more. These huge systems need men and women with the special talent to ensure they run smoothly. They need "big picture" people - industrial and systems engineers.
Mechanical Engineering
Tools and machines have lightened our loads and taken us from the far reaches of outer space to the inner workings of miniscule nano devices.
Master of Science Programs
The Tagliatela College of Engineering also offers Master of Science (M.S.) programs for students seeking advanced knowledge and skills in their chosen field.
Environmental Engineering, M.S.
Additional Opportunities
4+1 Degree Programs
The Tagliatela of College of Engineering offers a number of 4+1 degree programs. Students in these programs can take graduate courses while completing their bachelor's degree, reducing the time required to complete their master's degree to one year.

Internships
Students in engineering, computer science and cybersecurity & networks programs are required to complete an internship prior to graduation.
Project to Integrate Technical Communication Habits
The ability to communicate technical content in written, oral and visual forms is critical to the success of engineers in the workplace and is rated very highly by employers. The development of technical communication skills is integrated into courses spanning all four years in the engineering, computer science, and cybersecurity & networks programs.
Capstone Design Expo
The Capstone Design Expo is an opportunity for students to showcase the results from their senior design course. Tagliatela College of Engineering Professors Kristine Horvat, Ph.D., and Nagasree Garapati, Ph.D., as well as Amna Al-Azdee ’28, ’29 M.S.
The Value of an Engineering Degree
The study of engineering needn’t lead to a career as a practicing engineer in a specific discipline. You can use your engineering knowledge in one of many dynamic career paths. Engineers are problem solvers, and the ability to analyze a problem and find a viable solution is a highly sought-after attribute in many walks of life. Engineering skills provide an entry to business, law, medicine, politics, and entrepreneurship. The rewards of an engineering career include challenging tasks, social standing, and appealing working conditions and compensation. All of these are in addition to the great satisfaction of seeing your accomplishments in the real world of engineered components and systems.
Admissions and Academic Advising
The University of New Haven is one of a small number of universities in which entering first year students are admitted directly to the engineering college. A student may be accepted into the Tagliatela College of Engineering without declaring a major in a specific engineering discipline. This is possible because a considerable part of the first year curriculum is common to all engineering programs. Students who have chosen a major should follow the recommended first-year program for the major. Those students wishing to complete an engineering degree program other than engineering are strongly advised to decide on their new program by the beginning of the sophomore year. Faculty members within the Tagliatela College of Engineering take their responsibilities as academic advisers very seriously. Good academic advising helps a student make wise academic decisions and avoid course sequencing errors that can delay graduation.
University Core Curriculum and Technical Electives
In addition to college and department requirements, students must fulfill all requirements of the University Core Curriculum. (See University Curricula section of the catalog.) Included within the core curriculum are requirements in the humanities and social sciences. Technical electives are upper-level courses directly pertinent to a student's major field of study. These electives must be approved by the student's academic adviser and are usually chosen from engineering college courses, although specific courses in other majors may be allowed.
Recognition
The University of New Haven was named a "College of Distinction" by Colleges of Distinction, a national online higher education guide that assesses colleges for its engaged students, great teaching, and vibrant campus communities. The University's engineering programs were distinctly recognized for quality of education, facilities and faculty, and for providing real-world experience and internship opportunities.
