When it comes to engineering education in Texas, LeTourneau University, the Christian Polytechnic University,
 continues to rise in prominence, earning top rankings across the state, East Texas, and among Christian universities nationwide. This recognition is a testament to the quality education students receive from day one.

Ranked among the top 3 undergraduate engineering programs in Texas, according to the U.S. News and World Report Program Rankings, LeTourneau's recognition reflects the hands-on experience students receive starting from their very first day in engineering classes and continuing throughout their entire undergraduate career. This is part of a tradition of immersive, lab-based learning that has helped set the standard and has driven the program to continue rising in prominence.

This includes leading the way in East Texas. LeTourneau earned the ranking of the top university in East Texas, overall.


"What drew me to LeTourneau is that it allows us to ask not only how we engineer, but why. Our students develop deep technical competence, but they also wrestle with questions like 'Who benefits from this design?' and 'Is this what God would have us do?' That combination of rigor and purpose is what makes LeTourneau engineering distinct — and it's why the program continues to attract outstanding students who want their work to matter." 

~ Dr. Michael McGinnis, Ph.D, Dean of the School of Engineering and Engineering Technology
