engineering school
Classroom space for higher education leading to professional degrees in engineering.
An engineering school is a classroom space for higher education in any area of engineering. Topics of study may range across many disciplines, including software engineering, biochemical engineering, civil engineering, and so forth. Students at an engineering school are generally training to become professional engineers or researchers or teachers in the field.
The school can specialize in one engineering discipline or teach several. Software, biochemical, and civil engineering are examples rather than a complete list.
Preparation for research and teaching is included alongside preparation for professional engineering practice. The educational use is not limited to students seeking one professional credential.
