Our graduates are prepared through customized pathways adding disciplines of interest to a solid foundation of mathematics, science, and engineering coursework. Their academic work is complemented by high-impact experiences, including working on research teams, engaging in community-based learning, interning at various companies, and studying abroad. Engineering design courses in each year of the curriculum provide rich team-based learning experiences to build professional skills including communication, leadership, and empathy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-program-educational-objectives\">Program Educational Objectives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Engineering Plus program prepares its graduates to make contributions in many diverse areas. Specifically, within five years of graduation our graduates will be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>established in professional careers or enrolled in a graduate or professional degree program.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>advanced in professional standing based on their technical accomplishments and accumulated additional technical expertise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>applying the principles of human-centered engineering design in their professional pursuits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ethically committed to improving the quality of life for people around the world.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-student-outcomes\">Student Outcomes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The undergraduate degree in Engineering Plus prepares students to meet the following outcomes upon graduation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specific needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>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.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>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.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inspiration\">Inspiration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Innovation is a collaborative venture.
