BSE Major
Engineering draws from many disciplines. Geneva offers students the opportunity to work with an advisor to develop an interdisciplinary engineering program that can focus on biomedical, mechatronics, and other fields. Combined with a foundation of biblical principles and Christian core curriculum, you can develop and complete a customized, interdisciplinary engineering degree.
Construct a concentration in engineering consultation, with an emphasis on the sciences
Engage with different engineering disciplines through various competitions and projects
Gain a broad understanding of processes and systems within chemistry, electronics, biology, and the environment
Through classroom and lab direction, learn how carbon and its compounds play an essential role in living and nonliving things
Examine the way materials experience wear and tear over time and how to optimize designs
Handle air-sensitive materials, experiment with electromagnetics, calculate heat within reactions, and more in this hands-on class
Undertake a design project of your choice to create your own solution to a real-world problem
Geneva's Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, under the commission's General Criteria and Program Criteria for Engineering, General Engineering, Engineering Physics, and Engineering Science.
Engineering students at Geneva earn a BSE degree built around a core engineering curriculum that provides students with broad exposure to the field. Students will also choose a specific concentration by working with an advisor to decide which engineering discipline is right for them.
We recognize that our students and graduates make choices and commitments that we do not control. Nevertheless, we state our objectives on the assumption that our graduates stay in the engineering profession and make the choices and commitments that we encourage.
Objectives: Within five years of graduation, graduates of Geneva College’s Engineering program will:
Be employed in the engineering profession and, with experience, assume increasing levels of responsibility.
Obtain professional certifications and/or advanced degrees appropriate to their career path.
Upon successful completion of the engineering program, graduates will have achieved the following outcomes:
Graduates who aspire to have an impact in their communities and their careers through a Geneva Education gain expertise in this field enhanced by academics rooted in Christian values and ethics in Geneva’s program.
With a projected 22% increase in jobs, Research Engineers are in high demand, according the U.S. BLS.
Employers of our graduates say, Geneva students demonstrate subject matter excellence and professional preparation; dependability and strong work ethic; and an exceptional ability to engage others constructively in workplace contexts.
Promoting student interaction with each other and members of the engineering profession
Become agents of change through leadership, conversations, presentations, and hands-on activities that explore how engineering impacts society
SWE meets weekly throughout the semester for a variety of activities including speaker events, projects, study help sessions, and outreach events
