Faculty of Engineering

The Faculty of Engineering of the Universidad de La Sabana is committed to the search, discovery, communication and conservation of the truth in the fields of engineering, with an integrated vision of science, technology and society. 

The Faculty of Engineering of the Universidad de La Sabana was founded in 1989 with the opening of the Bioproduction Engineering career, then in 1997 the Industrial Engineering career was created, in the second semester of 2003 the Computer Engineering career, in 2006 the Master in Process Design and Management was created, in 2008 the Chemical Engineering career and in 2009 the Doctorate in Biosciences was created, thus becoming the first doctorate of the Universidad de La Sabana. In 2013 began the Master's Degree in Engineering Management, in 2015 began the Civil Engineering career and in the second semester of the same year the Doctorate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management.  In 2016, the Mechanical Engineering program began. For the year 2018, in the second semester the first cohort of the PhD in Engineering starts. 

The Faculty's research groups have high-tech laboratories where projects are developed that host undergraduate students in research seedlings as well as master's and doctoral students. The Faculty of Engineering also develops careers in partnership with industry, in conjunction with VISION - OTRI Consulting and Knowledge Transfer unit of the Universidad de La Sabana.
