工程 at Carthage is focused on learning how to design, 分析, and test devices and processes that solve human problems. Students learn through real projects partnered with real stakeholders to address real needs of our community. Our programs incorporate early design and project experiences to provide real-world contexts and early authentic practice to promote the development of skills employers seek.
工程 at Carthage is rooted in the liberal 艺术, designed to emphasize student self-discovery and exploration and provide opportunities to grow in all facets of life. Whether seeking to earn the Bachelor of Science or the Bachelor of 艺术, students’ engineering pathway builds on a solid science and mathematics base to teach students the engineering processes through the practice of engineering in design under the guidance of faculty mentors and industry partners.
工学学士学位
的 工学学士学位 is an interdisciplinary engineering degree based on ABET accreditation standards allowing students to pursue a breadth of engineering topics necessary to pass the Fundamentals of 工程 exam and enter a wide variety of engineering disciplines unconstrained by typical engineering disciplinary structures.
工程学士学位
的 工程学士学位 is an applied science degree with an engineering emphasis allowing students to pursue an area of specialization in areas such as business, 艺术, and humanities through a tailored course of study following the second year of coursework.
Undergraduate studies in engineering feature small classes, 实践的经历, 参与学院研究, and close partnerships with local industries. 通过你在bv伟德ios下载的学习, you will graduate with two years of engineering project experience or three if you opt into a year-long paid cooperative learning experience at an engineering firm. 在bv伟德ios下载, you will gain the engineering training and practice necessary for early and life-long career success.
“Carthage faculty helped plan out my four years as a double major and make my workload not seem so stressful. My relationships with professors have helped me in understanding homework, and it feels easy and convenient going to them for extra help.”
“I think that the combination of a very rigorous engineering core and Carthage’s liberal 艺术 curriculum work together to create engineers who are not only well versed in math and science, but who also have a broader range of knowledge and a larger skill set than your average engineer.”
“Carthage is a college that provided me with a great education in multiple areas of study. While most other schools are known for either their music or STEM programs, Carthage has great programs for both.”
“Consider majoring in engineering if you like to be challenged but equally rewarded. 的 critical thinking skills you gain from the required classes become worth the stress of finishing a project on time or studying for exams.”
Special academic options for engineering majors
summer undergraduate research experience
的 Summer Undergraduate Research Experience at Carthage offers engineering majors the opportunity to engage in collaborative full-time research with professors. Students work closely with faculty mentors on a new or developing line of research.
的 bv伟德ios下载的空间科学项目 is a nationally recognized undergraduate program that provides students with hands-on opportunities in technology development and atmospheric sciences through partnerships with 美国国家航空航天局 and academic researchers worldwide. Carthage students and faculty regularly conduct research aboard 美国国家航空航天局’s zero-gravity aircraft as part of ongoing experiments and technology development for space hardware. Students also participate in 美国国家航空航天局’s RockSat and CubeSat programs, with students designing and building experiments to be flown on 美国国家航空航天局 spacecraft. This work makes Carthage an excellent choice for students interested in aeronautical and space sciences.
至少到2026年,美国将继续保持经济增长.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that engineering job growth will be highest “in various areas such as the rebuilding of infrastructure, 可再生能源, 油气开采, 和机器人.”
Carthage is now offering a full-tuition 工程奖学金 that will be awarded to one incoming student majoring in engineering. This scholarship is awarded yearly to a student who most exemplifies the values of the 工程 Department: community, 好奇心, 聪明才智, 完整性, 可持续性, 和韧性. Carthage awards more than $2 million each year in its various scholarship competitions.
High school students who receive a “Distinguished” Achievement Level Descriptor in 工程设计概论 or Principles of 工程 AND complete a final project in 工程 Design and Development may receive credit toward bv伟德ios下载的工程学学位 EGR技术1100 工程设计概论 (4 cr.). Such received credit is considered provisional until the student’s subsequent Carthage course work confirms that they are sufficiently prepared for subsequent courses.
