Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth (Dartmouth Engineering) is the engineering school of Dartmouth College, an Ivy League research university, located in Hanover, New Hampshire, United States. Located in a three-building complex along the Connecticut River on Dartmouth's campus, Dartmouth Engineering offers undergraduate, master's, and doctoral degrees in engineering sciences, and has partnerships with other liberal arts colleges throughout the US to offer dual degrees.[2][3] The school was established in 1867 with funds from Dartmouth alumnus Sylvanus Thayer, also known for his work in establishing the engineering curriculum at the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York.
In 2016, Dartmouth Engineering became one of the first comprehensive, national research university in the US, where more than 50 percent of the graduating class to earn undergraduate engineering degrees were women.[4][5]
