College of Engineering

The College of Engineering comprises eight academic units of instruction and research. These units offer programs of study and research leading to bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees. Some also offer programs in one or more subdisciplines or subspecialties.

The programs in engineering are designed to provide a fundamental understanding of the engineering sciences (which are based on mathematics and the natural sciences), of the basic concepts of the humanities and social sciences, and an understanding of the manner in which these elements are interwoven in engineering practice. Each curriculum provides enough flexibility through elective course opportunities to permit a certain amount of program individualism while meeting basic requirements.

The eleven undergraduate engineering programs are accredited as follows:

The Master of Science in Medical Physics and the PhD with a major in Nuclear Engineering - Medical Physics Option programs are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Medical Physics Educational Programs, CAMPEP, www.campep.org/campeplstgrad.asp.
