Our History

Rich in Culture and History

Ever since 1982, we developed 3:2 programs focusing on Engineering, Information Technologies, Biomedical and Manufacturing Engineering, and appointed talented and experienced faculty to deliver them. Whereas only 30 students enrolled in Southeastern’s first academic year, in the first decade of its operations, an ever-increasing number of students from southeastern Europe became interested in American postsecondary education.

Since its inception, Southeastern’s dedication has been to respond to the evolving needs of society by offering capable and motivated students:

  • excellent upper-level curriculum programs
  • intellectual growth with scholarly and creative activities
  • a research culture and environment; preparation for upper level curriculum studies; quality research for the upper level curriculum
  • the link between study and professional achievement

Over the past 40 years, SOUTHEASTERN’s instructors and students have formulated many devices, systems and laboratory techniques that have made a substantive and transformative contribution to their respective fields/areas of interest, and have thus transformed the research character of Southeastern.

Today, we are celebrating 40 years and we are proud of our 18.755 graduates, and their individual stories of success. The objectives of Southeastern are to equip students with an excellent education, enabling them to compete successfully in the contemporary era’s competitive knowledge-based economy’s job market; to adopt productive, and conducive roles in society as professionals and intellectuals; and to embark on upper level curriculum programs of their choice.
