PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

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

Within a few years of graduation, graduates will:

  1. advance in the engineering profession or be pursuing graduate education in engineering or related fields;
  2. continue professional development throughout their career; and
  3. demonstrate competence, ingenuity, integrity, and integration of faith and work.

Student Outcomes

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

  • SO1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
  • SO2. 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
  • SO3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
  • SO4. 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
  • SO5. 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
  • SO6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
  • SO7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
