A Message from the Dean
Ram Nunna, Ph.D.
Welcome to the Lyles College of Engineering, at California State University, Fresno.
“No profession unleashes the spirit of innovation like engineering. From research to real-world applications, engineers constantly discover how to improve our lives by creating bold new solutions that connect science to life in unexpected, forward thinking ways. Few professions turn so many ideas into so many realities. Few have such a direct and positive effect on people’s everyday lives. We are counting on engineers and their imaginations to help us meet the needs of the 21st century.”
This recent statement from the National Academy of Engineering says it all!! The engineering profession profoundly impacts society and plays a huge role in the development and growth of economies. Engineering education has been at the core of university programs at California State University, Fresno (Fresno State) for almost 90 years. Our alumni of over 6000 students who have earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in engineering and construction management have made and are making great strides in meeting the needs of the 20th and 21st centuries.
