Academics

Where others see obstacles, you see opportunities. When others settle, you still have questions. It’s that same spirit of curiosity and passion for problem-solving that fuels innovation and discovery—and is what drives all of us at Hopkins Engineering. At Hopkins Engineering, you’ll be part of a small community of innovators on campus with big-city access — and a global network. You’ll get to know your classmates, professors, and instructors.

Along the way, you'll meet and learn from scientists, doctors, entrepreneurs, inventors, and other experts — including many former Blue Jays. Advance your career, expand your opportunities, or deepen your expertise with a master’s degree in a high-demand field.
