Across 12 programs serving roughly 426 students annually, 0 meet Azimuth's ranking threshold — a focused portfolio built around applied technical fields. Mechanical Engineering is the largest program with 80 graduates, followed by Biomedical/Medical Engineering with 64 graduates and Electrical, Electronics, and Communications Engineering with 64 graduates. Computer Engineering and Industrial Engineering contribute 50 and 46 graduates respectively, completing the institution's core degree output. The Mechanical Engineering program combines meaningful cohort scale with strong earnings, making it a central driver of the institution's overall financial outcomes. The engineering-heavy concentration means most graduates enter technical workforce pathways where demand for bilingual engineers with local licensing credentials remains steady across Puerto Rico's manufacturing, infrastructure, and energy sectors. The [supply-demand map for college graduates](/analysis/supply-demand-map-college-degrees/) provides broader context for how these fields align with national labor-market trends. For students committed to an engineering career path, Universidad Politecnica De Puerto Rico's narrow but deep program focus channels resources into a small number of fields rather than spreading them across a broad liberal-arts curriculum. ```
