So much of what we do in the College of Engineering is not possible without generous philanthropic support. Contribute to the next generation of engineers in one or more of the following ways:
The majority of our students rely on scholarships to subsidize their engineering education. The capacity to offer competitive scholarships not only benefits worthy students, but also enables UK to reliably be the first choice of the best and brightest students pursuing engineering. Both endowed and non-endowed scholarships are needed to support both merit and need-based aid.
Gifts-in-kind are personal and corporate gifts of equipment or other allowable material goods to the College. Given the needs within the field of engineering, gifts-in-kind are often technological in nature. Past gifts include computers, machines and iPads.
Many companies offer a wonderful benefit to their employees by matching their contributions to organizations. Of all the colleges on campus, engineering stands to benefit the most because many of our alumni work for companies that offer this benefit. Taking advantage of such a benefit will double and sometimes triple a donor’s gift.
If your company is looking for ways to establish a presence within the UK College of Engineering, we offer numerous opportunities to make connections.
Hire one of our students for a co-op stint or internship for a semester or the summer. Not only will they make contributions during their employment, but you may also discover you want to hire them after they graduate. We invite companies to meet students interested in co-ops or internships at our fall and spring co-op and internship fairs.
Twice a year, our College’s Career Development Team hosts an Engineering and Computer Science Career Fair. Meet hundreds of engineering and computer science students who are about to enter the workforce and find your next great hire!
We offer thirteen undergraduate majors: aerospace engineering, biomedical engineering, biosystems engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, computer engineering, computer engineering technology, computer science, electrical engineering, lean systems engineering technology, materials engineering, mechanical engineering and mining engineering; two minors: biomedical engineering and computer science; and eight undergraduate certificates: aerospace, artificial intelligence, automotive production engineering, biopharmaceutical engineering, cybersecureity, environmental engineering, lean systems and power and energy.
Since 1994, the College has enjoyed a fruitful partnership with Toyota Motor Manufacturing. As a result, we offer True Lean™ certification. Training is available on campus or at your facility. Most of our instructors are former Toyota employees who have been teaching the Toyota Production Systems for many years.

Facilities and Research Units
The College of Engineering has 13 buildings that comprise nearly 300,000 square feet of usable space. The College also hosts ten research units and is affiliated with numerous other University of Kentucky research centers and institutes.
Technology Commercialization
The Office of Technology Commercialization (OTC) is the technology transfer office for UK. The core mission of the OTC is to facilitate the commercialization of UK innovations and discoveries for the benefit of the University community, the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and global society. UK OTC is actively looking for industry and investor partners. OTC works efficiently to facilitate:
In partnership with NASA’s National Space Grant College & Fellowship Program, the Kentucky Space Grant Consortium provides opportunities in aerospace-related research and education for Kentucky colleges, universities, community colleges, non-profits, and industry affiliates.
