THINK THERE’S A BETTER WAY?

Discover IT. Invent IT. Design IT.

CURIOSIT Y AND INNOVATION THRIVE HERE.

Do you: Take things apart and put them back together?

Look at something and think, “that could work better?”

Like tinkering with circuits or code?

Find the potential of technology limitless?

Because that’s what engineering and computer sciences are all about: Looking at the world with an analytical eye, knowing there’s always a better way. An Indiana Tech education is more than the books. It’s about hands-on experiences that put all that math and programming into real-world applications, from bridges to cybersecurity.

Learn from caring professors who bring years of industry experience into our newly re-imagined, state-of-the-art home for engineering and computer sciences. The possibilities are endless with a degree from Indiana Tech.

There are larger engineering colleges.

But we believe smaller is better.

At Indiana Tech, most classes are 10 to 15 students, all taught by either full-time professors or adjunct instructors who are also working professionals. There are no grad assistants managing labs or teaching 100-person survey classes here.

Your instructors will know your name, your interests and your goals. They’ll personally guide you as you develop expertise and a career direction.

Changing the world, one capstone at a time.

Engaging in hands-on projects is an ideal way for students to prepare for the real world. By conceiving, managing and completing projects, students demonstrate qualities that employers are seeking—curiosity, discipline and focus.

Nationally recognized cybersecurity education.

As more and more high-profile corporations experience debilitating cyberattacks that negatively affect their reputations and their profitability, the need grows for talented cybersecurity professionals to help them defend their digital infrastructures.

That’s why Indiana Tech introduced its cybersecurity degree program in 2016—to develop top-notch professionals who are proficient in combating cybercriminals at all levels of enterprise. We are succeeding, too, as graduates from our program have been hired by companies like Microsoft, Lincoln Financial Group and Emerson Electric Co. What’s more, Indiana Tech has been designated as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense (CAE-CD) by the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for delivering high-quality cybersecurity education.

A launching pad for outstanding cybersecurity strategists.

Indiana Tech’s cyber competition team, the Cyber Warriors, has won Indiana’s Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition 18 of 20 times. In 2025, they finished sixth in the nation. All full-time team members from the past 10 years earned jobs right after graduation.
