The origins of the Faculty of Engineering date back to 1849, when the School of Arts and Crafts (EAO) was born amid Chile’s modernization process. In 1972, it was formally created by the merger of the School of Arts and Crafts (1849) and the School of Industrial Engineers (1940), thus continuing a century of work in forming engineers of excellence, who have contributed decisively to national development. At present, it is the oldest and largest academic unit of the Universidad de Santiago de Chile, with a student population of about eight thousand students in total, which makes it also the largest in the country.
