Message from the Dean

Welcome to the School of Engineering at ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½. What excites me about our program is that our students engage in high-caliber engineering work typically found at large state schools, but within a small Christian environment. Here, students build close relationships with peers and professors, benefiting from small classes and hands-on lab work. Our primary goal is to produce industry-ready engineers, prepared for both the workforce and graduate school. Our graduates excel in design, testing, research, and operations, with careers ranging from sporting equipment design to autonomous drone development.

What our students say about the School of Engineering

“The School of Engineering has provided me with amazing opportunities to learn from professors who have real-world experience. The small class sizes have allowed me to develop meaningful relationships with my professors who I know genuinely care about me, academically and spiritually. I have no doubt that the hands-on, technical skills I have developed will help me succeed in my future career endeavors.â€

Degrees through the  are regionally accredited by the .

These program educational objectives are based upon input from our constituents.

Within a few years of graduation, graduates will:

  1. Successfully enter the engineering profession or will pursue graduate education in engineering or related fields;

  2. Continue professional development throughout their career;

  3. Demonstrate a pattern of lifelong learning, an integration of faith and vocation, and be critical participants in the contemporary world within their profession.

The intended student outcomes for the electrical and mechanical engineering programs are that graduates will have:

  • An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics

  • An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors

  • An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences

  • An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts

  • An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives

  • An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions

  • An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
