Engineer Your Future Change the way society operates. That's how engineers and technologists approach the world. In the Allen School of Engineering and Computing, we teach you the skills you need to explore and discover innovative solutions for today's complex problems in engineering, computer and information technology. As a leader in rapidly changing fields, you'll need practical expertise focusing on technical, intellectual and interpersonal skills. That's what we do at Trine. And that's why 99.5% of our school's Class of 2024 was employed or in graduate school within six months of graduation*.

Every eligible student will secure at least one internship opportunity relevant to their field of study before graduation.

Every new ASEC student enrolling in Fall 2026 will receive a $2,000 grant toward their tuition — renewable for all four years!

*Based on 2024 Allen School of Engineering and Computing Graduating Class Knowledge Rate of 92.9%. Compared to 2023 Graduation Class National Knowledge Rate of 55.8%.

bock 114 — The Metal Castings Lab includes all the equipment needed to create metal castings in sand or permanent molds. The 75-kilowatt induction furnace can melt 100 pounds of cast iron or steel. The combustion furnace allows the melting of 40 pounds of non-ferrous metals. There is also a resistance furnace, designed and built by Trine students.

bock 215 — Design engineering technology majors can use advanced 3D-printing equipment in the Additive Manufacturing Lab to create prototypes and bring projects to life.
