Our faculty and staff consists of academic experts and experienced professionals from around the country. They are involved in all aspects of educating our students and guiding them to program completion and career success.
RWU is committed to delivering real-world learning experiences that build strong analytical and technical skills for our students. That’s why we’re building SECCM Labs, a hub of laboratories, project rooms and open spaces dedicated to hands-on, collaborative teaching and learning. Located in the heart of campus, SECCM Labs will give our students the opportunity to test designs and apply their new skills in a laboratory environment.
Our vision is to be a nationally-recognized leader in education in the disciplines of Computer Science, Construction Management and Engineering whose graduates are highly recruited by leading professional organizations and graduate programs.
