Program Learning Outcomes

1
Problem-solving skills. Students completing the Engineering Program will be efficient problem-solvers. They will be able to apply basic problem solving techniques to identify the useful information provided, make proper simplifications, apply basic physics and engineering theories, solve for the solution, and interpret the results. They will have a good foundation for more advanced studies in their specific engineering discipline after transfer to a four-year engineering program.
2
Laboratory skills. Students completing the Engineering Program will be thorough and competent experimentalists through their skills development in physics and chemistry laboratories. They should be able to design an experimental method, predict results using appropriate scientific and mathematics theory, perform the experiment and collect data while minimizing sources of error, present results with graphical and mathematical support, complete thorough error analysis, and interpret experimental results in comparison with theoretical predictions.
3
Computer skills. Students completing the Engineering Program will be able to demonstrate efficient use of computer tools such as basic word processing and spreadsheet programs, graphing and computer data acquisition programs, and computer aided design software. They will also have fundamental knowledge of computer programming languages, algorithm development, and be able to write, compile, and run programs from scratch for problem solving.
4
Presentation skills. Students completing the Engineering Program will be effective oral and written communicators. They will be able to explain scientific theory verbally through presentation techniques and in writing through formal written reports, using scientific, mathematical, and analytical skills.
