The College of Engineering and Computer Science at Wright State is one of the
best kept secrets. With approximately 16,000 undergraduate and graduate
students, we provide the opportunities one would expect at a large university,
while maintaining the student-centered environment you would expect from a much
smaller school. We offer outstanding programs that prepare our graduates for
future success and we stand behind their success with an Employment Guarantee.
In addition, we provide:
Competitive Tuition
The tuition for undergraduate students living in Ohio is approx. $6,500
annually. The room and board costs are approximately $6,000 per year for the
typical plan. Students can expect to spend about $900 per year on books and
supplies. Total cost for a student living on campus is around $12,800 annually.
Excellent Location
Wright State is located in Fairborn, Ohio, a suburb 12 miles northeast of
Dayton. We are also located right next to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
There are many opportunities for jobs and research collaboration because of its
close proximity to campus. The Dayton area is also home to companies like
LexisNexis, NCR, Standard Register, and many more. Students have the
opportunity to work with these companies as a part of our co-op program.
Outstanding Facilities
Wright State has excellent facilities in all senses of the word. We have several
residential facilities on campus including the Engineering and Computer Science
Community housed in Hamilton Hall, a community specially designed for incoming
CECS students. The Russ Engineering Center offers modern labs, a student study
lounge, wireless capabilities, plus the building is open 24/7 to always meet
student needs. The College will open the new Krishan and Vicky Joshi Research
Center in August 2006. The Joshi Center will house state-of-the-art labs,
conference facilities, as well as daytaOhio.
ABET Accreditation
All the degree programs in the College of Engineering and Computer Science are
ABET Accreditated, which means you can be assured of the highest quality
educational programs available.
