STUDENT RESOURCES - Frequently Asked Questions

We have provided some of the most common questions that new students ask when looking at the engineering field of study.

WHAT IS ENGINEERING?
Engineering is the application of scientific and mathematical principles to practical ends such as the design, manufacture, and operation of efficient and economical structures, machines, processes, and systems. Engineers design bridges, medical equipment, circuit boards, and many other things used in every day life. Engineers also develop new ways of doing things.

WHAT ARE MY EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES?
Engineers have many job opportunities to choose from, and they are not some of the jobs you would typically expect from engineering graduates. Many engineers end up choosing from jobs in research, design, analysis, testing, development, sales and business. Some graduates even end up in accounting departments of major corporations with just an engineering degree.
