UB’s Innovation College
College of Engineering, Business, and Education
Thirty-five programs across engineering, business, and education — the University’s largest college, and the one most tightly bound to industry. Co-ops and internships run alongside coursework, from the bachelor’s level through two doctorates.
What makes this college different
Where theory meets a paying job
Engineering, business, and education sit in one college for a reason. The problems worth solving — automation, analytics, teacher shortages, energy — cross all three, and so do our students.
Industry ties, not brochures
Co-ops and internships in industry, government, academia, and school districts run while you study — a direct line into the Connecticut and New York employer corridor.
Emerging fields, early
Artificial intelligence, data analytics, biomedical engineering, and a STEM-designated MBA — programs built for the economy that is arriving, not the one that left.
A full ladder, one campus
Associate through Ph.D. in the same college, including a BS-to-MS accelerated engineering track. You can go as far as you want without transferring.
Inside the college
Three schools, one innovation culture
Each school has its own accreditation, faculty, and industry network — and students routinely take courses across all three.

From the Dean
Welcome to the College of Engineering, Business and Education — University of Bridgeport’s Innovation College.
The College provides comprehensive professional, education, and research opportunities in engineering, sciences, technology, computing, business, management, entrepreneurship, finance, analytics, accounting, education, teacher preparation, and educational administration.
We are locally, regionally, and globally known for very strong ties to the modern economy and industry. That is what gives our students unique co-ops and internships in industry, government, academia, and school districts while they study — and exceptional job placement when they graduate.
Our education features an application-oriented approach that balances theory with real-world, state-of-the-art practice. A stimulating scholarly environment, world-class research centers, and distinguished programs at the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral levels ensure our graduates leave with creative, innovative, and analytical skills.
