Columbia School of Engineering has altered Pass/D/Fail academic accommodations and policies for the rest of the Spring 2024 semester in light of protests on and off campus.

On Monday, April 15, Columbia Engineering Dean Shih-Fu Chang announced Professor of Biomedical Engineering Barclay Morrison as the new Vice Dean of Academic Programs.

Congratulations to the Early Decision Class of 2028!

Organizing your schedule, core and major requirements, GPA, credits, and the classes you want to take has now been made ridiculously easy!

Over the last week, Columbia College, GS, and SEAS have all announced substantial changes to their Computer Science majors, an effort to both accommodate the developing academic field and mitigate the department’s years-long issues with over-enrollment.

This afternoon, Columbia College and SEAS announced that their Class Day speakers will be playwright Katori Hall, CC ’03, and EpiBone CEO Nina Tandon, SEAS ’09, Columbia Business School ’12, respectively.

This week’s events include a faculty roundtable, a climate science colloquium, film screenings, Dog Therapy with Alice! and Active Minds, Latin Jazz Night, and the Dr. Saul and Dorothy Kit Noir Film Festival!

If I had a hammer and a pointier hammer…

Get ready to fit into any of the undergrad schools!

A scholarship for a one-year master’s degree in global affairs at Beijing’s Tsinghua University has been awarded to six Columbia University students. 

SEAS student Norris Pride passed away over the weekend, according to an email that Shih-Fu Chang, Dean of Columbia Engineering, sent to the Columbia community this morning.

After a successful year of interim leadership of SEAS, Shih-Fu Chang has been named the next Dean of the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.

Dean Chang has announced that Sunita Williams, a former NASA astronaut and record breaker for achievements in space, will address SEAS undergraduates and graduates on Columbia Engineering’s Class Day.

A non-SEAS student (i.e., a Fu Fighter) weighs in. 

Interim Dean Shih-Fu Chang and Vice Dean for Undergraduate Programs Barclay Morrison sent an email detailing a new P/D/F policy for SEAS students.
