Facilities
The various departments in College of Engineering are all recognized as nationally outstanging programs and the facilities are a reflection of that fact. The K-State Engineering Complex, which consist of six Halls, is situated on the West side of the Kansas State University campus in Manhattan, Kan. The facility includes the following structures:


 * Durland-Rathbone-Fiedler Hall
 * Durland - CHE, IMSE
 * Fiedler Hall - CE
 * Rathbone Hall - Main Engineering, EECE, ME
 * Nichols Hall - CIS
 * Seaton Hall - BAE, ARE
 * Ward Hall - Nuclear Engineering Program

In addition to these facilities, there are several off campus facilities that house experimentation labs and support facilities.

Student Involvement
The College of Engineering emphasises developing students. Academics are important,but learning also takes place outside of the classroom and several group organizations are present for that reason.

Several student clubs and organizations are available to College of Engineering students seeking to meet other students and apply skills learned in the classroom. Each of the 9 college departments sponsor at least one club or organization. Some such clubs are KSU Solar Car Racing Team, Concrete Canoe, KSU Aero Team, 1/4 Scale Tractor, Formula Car Team, and Robotic Combat Team. There is also many larger organizations such as Engineering Ambasadors, Powercat Masters Toastmasters Club, Society of Women Engineers (SWE), and Steel Ring represent college-wide organizations.

The K-State competition teams have earned several championships throughout the years, including the international champion Scale Tractor Team in 2003 and KSU Aero regularly placing in the top three, if not first. Also the Solar Car Apollo placed first in 2002 and 2004 at Formula Sun Grand Prix and another car, CATalyst, finishing regularly in the top ten.

Research
K-State College of Engineering has several research facilities. One of the most recognized is The National Gas Machinery Laboratory, performing turbocharger research and various engine test. In Cival Engineering there is CISL, Civil InfrastructureSystems Laboratory, a facility that performs weather and variable load tests on developing road structures.
