What’s New?
- All engineering classes include an element of design, in which students actually use the concepts they have been developing.
- A suite of free electives allows students to pursue a variety of interests.
- Engineering in the Community service-learning course enables students to engage in an engineering project that benefits the community.

The Program
- A balanced curriculum provides the theoretical framework needed for graduate studies and the practical skills needed in industry.
- Opportunities abound for rewarding community service projects, internships with local engineering firms, and summer research or upper-level student research abound.
- All classes are taught by faculty (unlike larger universities, where graduate assistants teach many undergraduate courses).
- A low student faculty ratio in the department means classes are small and students never run the risk of getting lost in the crowd.
- Professors are primarily devoted to teaching undergraduates.
- Innovative teaching is based on discovery, small group activities, cooperative learning, and design projects.
- Students have access to the latest technologies. Almost all labs use computer-assisted data collection and analysis.
