Located on Symonds Street, [[Auckland]], it has been consistently rated as the best Engineering School in [[New Zealand]] for quality of research.<ref>http://www.tec.govt.nz/upload/downloads/pbrf-full-report-2006.pdf Performance Based Research Fund (PBRF) 2006 full report</ref> == Facilities == The faculty itself is based at the [[University of Auckland]] City Campus, with many research groups based at the [[Newmarket Campus]], including the Center for Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Design (CAMMD), and the Centre for Robotics and Automation Engineering Sciences (CARES) The Faculty has been undergoing recent renovation at its city Campus, including a modern atrium area with café, updated library, four new computer labs, two new large lecture theatres, and updates to equipment and seating in many smaller lecture rooms. New Zealand's only [[Scanning electron microscope|environmental scanning electron microscope]] was acquired by the Research Center for Surface Materials Science (RCSMS) in 2005.<ref>http://www.engineering.auckland.ac.nz/uoa/engineering/about/profile.cfm Faculty Profile on the official Faculty website</ref> == History == The faculty was made famous for its role in [[Team New Zealand]]'s [[America's Cup]] victory in 1995 and 2000, instrumental in its contribution was the world's first Twisted Flow Wind Tunnel built in 1994 at the Tamaki Campus that allows better simulation of the flow of wind over yacht sails by varying the angle of attack with height.<ref>http://www.engineers.auckland.ac.nz/~dpel004/yru/html/Wind-tunnel/background.html Background of the Twisted Flow Wind Tunnel Facility</ref> The smaller DeBray [[wind tunnel]] situated at the city campus is used for a variety of research and teaching purposes, but is primarily used commercially to provide pedestrian wind environment tests for new building consents for the [[Auckland City Council]] using its 1:400 scale model of the Auckland City central business district. == Departments == * Department of [[Chemical Engineering|Chemical]] and [[Materials science|Materials Engineering]] * Department of [[Civil engineering|Civil and Environmental Engineering]] * Department of [[Electrical engineering|Electrical and Computer Engineering]] * Department of [[Engineering Science and Biomedical Engineering]] * Department of [[Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering|Mechanical Engineering]] == Degrees == === Undergraduate === * [[Bachelor of Engineering]] (Honors) ** [[Biomedical Engineering]] ** [[Chemical Engineering|Chemical and Materials Engineering]] ** [[Civil Engineering]] (including [[Environmental Engineering]]) ** [[Computer Systems Engineering]] ** [[Electrical and Electronic Engineering]] ** [[Engineering Science]] ** [[Mechanical Engineering]] (including [[Woodfibre Composites]]) ** [[Mechatronics Engineering]] ** [[Software Engineering]] * Bachelor of Engineering / [[Bachelor of Arts]] Conjoint * Bachelor of Engineering / [[Bachelor of Commerce]] Conjoint * Bachelor of Engineering / Bachelor of Property Conjoint * Bachelor of Engineering / [[Bachelor of Science]] Conjoint * Bachelor of Engineering / [[Bachelor of Laws]] Conjoint * Bachelor of Engineering / Bachelor of Laws (Honours) Conjoint === Postgraduate === *Master of Engineering *Master of [[Engineering management|Engineering Management]] *Master of Engineering Studies *Master of [[Operations research|Operations Research]] *[[Doctor of Philosophy]] *[[Doctor of Engineering]] *Diplomas and Certificates *Graduate Diploma in Engineering *Graduate Diploma in Engineering (Transportation) *Graduate Diploma in Operations Research *Postgraduate Certificate in [[Geothermal power|Geothermal Energy]] Technology *Postgraduate Certificate in [[Light metals|Light Metals]] Reduction Technology ==References== {{Reflist}} == Further reading == * {{Cite book |last=Bassett |first=Judith |title=The school of engineering University of Auckland 1906-1969 : a history |publisher=School of Engineering University of Auckland |year=1969 |oclc=116618}} * {{Cite book |last=Bassett |first=Judith |title=Prospero's island : a history of the School of Engineering at the University of Auckland |publisher=School of Engineering, University of Auckland |year=2003 |isbn=9780908689729}} ==External links== * [http://www.engineering.auckland.ac.nz/uoa/ Official website of the Faculty of Engineering, University of Auckland] {{University of Auckland}} {{Authority control}} [[Category:Faculties of the University of Auckland|Engineering, Faculty of]]'
