Michigan Engineering Intranet

This site is your bridge to information – distributed throughout the college and university – that supports the work of faculty and staff.

Understanding the college

Everything we do comes back to Research, Education and Culture.

Associate Deans guide the research and teaching enterprises. Various administrative units handle academic-adjacent student services and the college’s business operations. They all work in support of the college’s Strategic Vision and its academic departments, research labs and facilities – where the teaching and research happen. And of course they all report to the Dean.
