UIUC’s unique MEng in Railway Engineering synthesizes civil, mechanical, and systems engineering to modernize the backbone of low-carbon transport. Industry-taught modules cover wheel-rail dynamics, PTC signaling, and supply-chain analytics. Students visit the Transportation Technology Center, simulate high-speed alignments in OpenTrack, and design predictive-maintenance dashboards with Class I rail mentors. Graduates drive innovation at Amtrak, Siemens Mobility, and global freight operators.
