THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING AND TEXTILES


B.S. in Engineering (minor in Textile Engineering): A Message from the Dean

A career in engineering is both exciting and rewarding! I know since I have been a practicing engineer for almost 30 years after graduating as a textile engineer in 1971.

Textile engineering - what is it? It's a field of engineering where one can practice a wide range of activities that benefit society and is both personally and professionally rewarding. Textile engineers develop and produce products that go into consumer goods and a wide range of high performance systems such as life-saving artificial arteries and other biomedical devices, aerospace fibrous composites, automotive products, and protective clothing for the military, law enforcement officers, and rigorous outdoor activities.

Since 1884 Philadelphia University has been a world leader in educating textile engineers and I would like you to take some time to visit the rest of this web site to learn more about becoming a textile engineer. At Philadelphia University we offer a unique and personalized educational opportunity where our professors teach and advise students in an environment that offers modern engineering laboratories and classrooms. From the freshman year to career placement or preparation for graduate school education, they are highly motivated to work with our textile engineering students.

The final bonus comes when our textile engineering graduates seek employment. Career opportunities, local, national and international, are plentiful and very financially rewarding; they generally far exceed the number of our graduates each year.

If an engineering education is what you are after, take the time to visit our special website to learn more about textile engineering at Philadelphia University. If you want more information or would just like to talk with me you can e-mail me at brooksteind@philau.edu or call me at 215-951-2751.

Good luck on your search for the right college to study engineering..give us an opportunity to tell you more about our unique program in textile engineering!

Sincerely,


Dr. David Brookstein
Dean
