Bachelor of Science in General Engineering

Upon starting the course sequence for your major, you’ll explore:

• engineering as a problem-solving tool and how to apply scientific principles;
• structural programming techniques and numerical and graphic engineering applications;
• engineering-relevant mathematical concepts, including vector algebra, equilibrium, friction, inertia, trusses, machines and frames, linear algebra, probability, and statistical methods;
• the mechanics of deformable bodies, with emphasis on stress, strain, axial loading, bending, and torsion;
• materials science, from structures and properties to system design;
• thermodynamics, including equilibrium, variables, and multi-phase systems;
• fluid mechanics, from properties and statics to volume approach, system response, and design parameters concerning performance and stability;
• electric circuit theory concepts and laws;
• leadership and entrepreneurship in engineering;
• product design and development tools; and
• project management concepts, tools, and terminology.
