The College of Science and Engineering (CSE) is one of the colleges of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, Minnesota. On July 1, 2010, the college was officially renamed from the Institute of Technology (IT).{{Cite web |title=Historical milestones {{!}} College {{!}} College of Science and Engineering |url=https://cse.umn.edu/college/about/historical-milestones |access-date=2024-06-14 |website=cse.umn.edu |language=en}}{{cite web|url=http://blog.lib.umn.edu/itcomm/news/2009/12/institute_of_technology_to_bec.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120708121851/http://blog.lib.umn.edu/itcomm/news/2009/12/institute_of_technology_to_bec.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=July 8, 2012|title=Published Works|website=blog.lib.umn.edu}} It was created in 1935 by bringing together the university's programs in engineering, mining, architecture, and chemistry. Today, CSE contains 12 departments and 24 research centers that focus on engineering, the physical sciences, and mathematics.College of Science and Engineering: The Institute of Technology Years (1935–2010), edited by Thomas J.
