Engineering Physics, Mechanical Engineering Option, B.S.E.P.


Learning Outcomes

For a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics, students will:

     Identify, formulate, and solve complex scientific and engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.

     Apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.

     Communicate effectively with a range of audiences both technical and non-technical.

     Recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering and scientific situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering and scientific solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.

     Function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.

     Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment and scientific principles to draw conclusions.

     Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
