Welcome

The W. Bradford Ingalls Engineering Resource Center provides College of Engineering students with a state-of-the-art place to meet, do research and work on common projects together. Established through a gift from the college’s first alumnus, the center combines high technology with innovative design to create a welcoming environment for students to build on the knowledge gained in the classroom and laboratory. It’s a place for students to study individually, to work on class projects in small groups, to research on-line journals and periodicals, or just relax between classes.

The Ingalls Engineering Resource Center has a range of features and capabilities aimed at enhancing the educational experience for BU engineering students.
