USC Viterbi School of Engineering
Engineering a Better World for All Humanity
With a diverse and talented student population, outstanding faculty, transformational research, and impactful outreach, the USC Viterbi School of Engineering is utilizing engineering and technology to change the world by solving Grand Challenge-like problems. There has never been a better time to be an engineer…or an engineering student here at USC.
We live in transformative times, where the rate of change is accelerating and where the convergence of disciplines has never been stronger. At USC Viterbi, our students develop imaginative, impactful solutions that address global challenges in health, sustainability, security, and enriching life — in all of their dimensions. We offer human-centric solutions in an era where technology and humanity are intertwined as never before.
Recent accomplishments at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering
In the fall of 2024, USC Viterbi celebrated the opening of the USC School of Advanced Computing with the ribbon-cutting ceremony of our Dr. Allen and Charlotte Ginsburg Human-Centered Computation Hall.
We recently celebrated two decades of innovation and transformative research at the Department of Astronautical Engineering.
Also celebrating 20 years of innovation, our Rocket Propulsion Lab recently made space history by launching a rocket to an altitude of 470,000 feet. That set an international record by soaring further into space than any non-governmental, non-commercial group has ever flown before.
USC Viterbi and the Keck School of Medicine have been collaborating on human trials for a revolutionary brain prosthesis to repair and restore lost memories.
We recently launched a first-of-its-kind interdisciplinary Ph.D. program in artificial intelligence and operations research.
These and so many of our other achievements, past and present, are only possible because of the support from our alumni, parents, and friends. No matter what you choose to support at USC Viterbi — scholarships or fellowships, a specific department, one of our many student teams, an academic or research program, one of our K-12 STEM programs, or any other area at USC Viterbi — please remember that a gift of any size makes a difference.
We invite you to consider making a gift today and help us to continue to engineer a better world for all humanity.
Thank you and FIGHT ON!
