Program Educational Outcomes

The engineering science program prepares undergraduate students for employment, entrepreneurship, and/or advanced studies. The program’s three primary constituencies are industry, alumni, and academia, which by default comprise the program’s external advisory board.

Within three to five years of graduation, graduates are expected to:

  • Engage in ongoing professional development activities including but not limited to graduate study, leadership training, certification, and licensure,
  • Foster future generations of engineers through mentoring, service, and outreach,
  • Assume leadership roles in professional and/or community life, and
  • Be productive, responsible, healthy citizens with a global perspective,
Student Outcomes

Our engineering science graduates will demonstrate the attainment of the following outcomes:

  1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
  2. 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
  3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
  7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed using appropriate learning strategies
