Our world needs solutions to a host of grand problems: access to clean water, affordable and clean energy, better medicine, and restoring and improving urban infrastructure. Engineering and computing will continue to play central roles in addressing these challenges.
At USC, we are committed to presenting our students with the chance to tackle these real-world problems. Help fuel our vision and invest in the future—make a gift to support the Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing.
Thank you for all you do to engineer a future that is better than today.
-Dean Hossein Haj-Hariri
