Mission and Goals
Consonant with the mission of the College, the engineering programs are “dedicated to providing for its students the means for their full realization of a dual goal of vocation and enlightenment.” Society requires competent professionals who can solve contemporary problems by using connections among disciplines, especially the humanities, engineering and technology, and the sciences. The engineering programs are designed to blend the unique characteristics of Catholic liberal arts education with preparation for productive and rewarding professional careers. The engineering programs are civil engineering with a broadfield emphasis, civil engineering with an environmental emphasis, engineering science with an engineering mechanics emphasis, engineering science with a flexible emphasis, engineering science with an environment and public health emphasis, and the 3-2 program. Additionally, a mathematics degree with a cognate concentration in engineering is available through the mathematics program.
