The 4-year Engineering Program results in a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Engineering. In their first two years of the program, students will primarily study math and science supporting courses and a common engineering core curriculum. In the second two years, students will add a concentration area of study in Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Civil/Environmental Engineering, or the Distributed Engineering concentration, which allows a student to develop an individualized engineering concentration, subject to department approval. Students are required to complete a full-year culminating design sequence during their senior year in addition to the Christ at the Core Capstone Course. The 4-year Engineering Program is working toward ABET accreditation.
