Mission
The mission of the undergraduate engineering science program is to prepare students to become knowledgeable and skilled engineers with an understanding of the ethical and other professional aspects of engineering science.
Goals
- Fundamental Understanding: Have a sound background in the fundamentals of engineering
- Meet Industry Expectations: Have the abilities and knowledge expected by industry
- Academically Prepared: Are prepared to enter graduate and professional degree programs related to engineering science.
Student Learning Outcomes
- Students will have the ability to communicate effectively, i.e., the skill to convey the ideas and thoughts correctly and do so in an easy to understand and attractive manner.
- Students will have the ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering fundamentals to formulate and solve relevant engineering problems.
- Students will have the ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economics, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.
