An Overview of Engineering at Maryville

 
JENNIFER YUKNA, PhD: Engineering is the study of science, technology, and math to develop economical solutions to technical problems. For students that are decided on engineering as a career path, our dual degree program provides them with an education that has a greater breadth than a traditional engineering school would provide. Students will have stronger communication skills, a background in humanities and social sciences, and a demonstrated ability to work effectively in teams. When entering the workforce, they will stand out in comparison to students without the liberal arts background. Really our students do not study engineering at Maryville. Instead, we're providing them with that science and math foundation and the liberal arts foundation to support the work that they'll do as they learn engineering with some of our partner schools. With an engineering degree, there are many opportunities to specialize, such as computer engineering, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, aerospace engineering. Overall, job opportunities in engineering are strong and growing if you're interested in engineering please schedule a visit and stop by.
