Find your engineering focus. All our engineering programs start with the same courses in first year so you can learn more about each field (civil, environmental, electrical, industrial and mechanical). Then choose an area of study for second year. You’ll receive guidance from our world renowned faculty, hands-on learning in a supportive environment and gain the skills needed for a successful career.
All engineering programs begin with a general first year that provides students flexibility in program choice. In your first year, you will learn and explore subjects important to engineering, including:
- Forces, motions and movement
- Electricity and magnetism
- Mathematics and its applications
- Design and graphical communications
- Chemical and material interactions
- Technical communications
- Professional issues in the engineering disciplines
- Introductory electrical and computing
