Engineering uses the principles of math and science to find practical solutions to problems or needs. Engineers develop the technological tools that enable to live better lives (computer chips, hydro dams, artificial limbs, etc.). Though the field of engineering is diverse the skill set one needs in areas such as biology, water resource management, environmental protection and computing systems are common. Basic sciences, engineering sciences, math, and engineering design are only the foundation courses. An engineering education is much broader.
The Bachelor of Science - Engineering program is a 4-year degree program, where students complete a general first year, then from second year on, have the opportunity to specialize in one of the following areas:
- Biosystems Engineering
- Civil Engineering
- Computer Engineering
- Electrical Engineering
- Mechanical Engineering
