Engineers have the opportunity to be of profound service to humanity. Engineers are problem solvers. They apply science and mathematics to create solutions that are intended to be of "benefit to mankind." These solutions can deal with energy, air and water pollution, space travel, biomedicine, construction, computer design, bridge and dam design, and many other interesting areas of study. There are numerous fields of engineering to enter, including Aerospace, Biomedical, Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Environmental, Material Science, Mechanical Engineering and many others.
The strength of Elon's program is built upon a distinctive undergraduate curriculum that combines courses in the liberal arts and sciences with engineering courses beginning the freshman year. By the time students have completed three years at Elon and two years at an engineering school, they have exceptional career preparation distinguished by broad knowledge in their field and foundational skills essential to the workplace. These students leave this program well-rounded, articulate and highly educated engineers. In particular, Elon's program offers:
