The college is also in the midst of a major building/infrastructure development program that will result in the construction of three new buildings that will directly or indirectly affect all of its programs over the next four years. The impact of the current economic turndown will also be discussed along with the college's current plans for increasing the number of engineering graduates that will be needed to address the technological challenges of the future. All students and faculty are invited to attend. UTNE Graduate Students who hold Assistantships or Fellowships are required to attend in person.
