College Leadership
Mark Tehranipoor
Dean
Welcome to the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering at the University of Florida, where engineering is about more than solving today’s problems—it’s about shaping what comes next. Our students, faculty, staff, alumni and partners are advancing research, educating the next generation of engineers and leaders, and developing solutions to some of the world’s most complex challenges. As one of the nation’s leading public research universities, UF provides a remarkable environment for collaboration, innovation and societal impact. We are proud of what we have accomplished and even more excited about what lies ahead.
