2018-2019 Academic Catalog

Engineering Science, B.S.

The Engineering Science program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org.

Program Educational Objectives

The program educational objectives of the Carroll College Engineering Science Program are to prepare graduates who will:

  1. Find employment in their chosen field and enjoy successful and rewarding careers.
  2. Seek and engage in lifelong learning to grow and develop in their chosen professions and/or continue their education to earn a master's or a doctoral degree.
  3. Demonstrate leadership, especially through good teamwork and effective communication skills.
  4. Conduct themselves as ethical and responsible professionals, always mindful of the safety, environmental, economic, public health and aesthetic impacts of their work.

Students may choose one of three emphases: engineering mechanics, environment and public health, or flexible.

Students must take the Fundamental of Engineering (FE) exam within nine months prior to receiving the degree.

To earn a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in engineering science, a student must earn a grade of “C-” or better in all of the courses listed under “Major Program Requirements,” the appropriate “Emphasis Requirements,” and under “Other Program Requirements.” A lesser grade in any of these courses must be replaced before the Bachelor of Science degree with a major in engineering science will be granted. In addition, lesser grades in any of these courses preclude taking subsequent courses for which the deficient courses are a prerequisite.
