ENGINEERING
The programs in Engineering are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation
Commission (EAC) of the Accreditation Board for the Engineering and
Technology (ABET). These programs lead to a bachelor's degree with
concentrations in the following fields of study:
Civil Engineering (B.S.C.E.)
Electrical Engineering (with Computer Engineering Option) (B.S.E.E.)
Mechanical Engineering (B.S.M.E.)
The engineering programs are structured to prepare the graduate for the
professional practice of engineering and/or graduate study. The curricula
emphasize a rigorous treatment of the mathematical and scientific approaches to
the
solution of engineering problems.
The final two years of study stress the synthesis of unique solutions rooted
in the
fundamental principles mastered during the first two years and culminate in a
design project.

Program Goals, Objectives and Design Integration:
The objective of the Civil Engineering program at Temple University is to
provide students with a broad knowledge of mathematics, physical and engineering
sciences, computer utilization, communication skills, and societal factors from
which students can synthesize unique solutions to relatively complex problems
related to Civil Engineering. Since Civil Engineering professionals plan,
design, construct and operate facilities which are essential to the quality of
modern life, the Civil Engineering curriculum is based upon providing a fully
integrated design experience by beginning with introductory courses in the study
of engineering history and economics, then progressing through a broad coverage
of the primary areas of practice within Civil Engineering (surveying,
structures, geotechnical engineering, construction engineering, water resources,
transportation, and environmental engineering), and finishing with a year long
capstone Civil Engineering senior design project. The goal of the Civil
Engineering program is to prepare students to pursue graduate education in their
specific areas of interest, seek professional licensing, and become involved in
design, project planning and research.

(215) 204-8089
Program Goals, Objectives and Design Integration:
The objective of the electrical and computer engineering program is to prepare
students for careers as practicing engineers in the areas such as electrical and
electronic circuits, digital logic design, control systems, microprocessor
applications, and analog and digital communications. These careers are in
applications, development, research, and design project supervision. In
addition, a recent objective of the program is to prepare students for a career
in the area of computer engineering as it relates to the design of integrated
software/hardware systems with both high and low level computer systems
programming and applications to electrical systems. This is currently
attained through the development of a computer engineering option within
electrical engineering, where the curriculum for the option has been developed
in conjunction with the Computer and Information Sciences (CIS) department at
Temple University.

Program Goals, Objectives and Design Integration:
The mission of the Mechanical Engineering Department is to
provide an excellent educational experience for the students in its programs.
This experience includes an emphasis on the technical, communication, and
teamwork skills that graduate engineers need to succeed, in both the workplace
and society in general. In order to achieve these goals, the department places
great importance on teaching, research, scholarship, engineering practice and
service to the University community and the Engineering profession. The
mechanical engineering program is structured to prepare the graduate for the
professional practice of engineering and/or graduate school. The curriculum
emphasizes a rigorous treatment of the mathematical and scientific approach to
the solution of engineering problems. It provides a coherent set of courses in
energy conversion and structures/motion in mechanical systems. The program has
design across the curriculum and is capped with an integrated design experience
in the form of a senior project.

ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY
The Programs in Engineering Technology lead to the Bachelor of Science in
Engineering Technology degree in the following fields of study:
Civil and Construction Engineering Technology
Environmental Engineering Technology
Engineering Technology
All of the engineering technology programs are accredited by the
Technology Accreditation Commission (TAC) of the Accreditation Board for
Engineering and Technology (ABET). These programs lead to the Bachelor of
Science in Engineering Technology (B.S.E.T.) degree.
The General Engineering Technology Program is offered at Main Campus with
some courses available at the Ambler Campus.
Students enrolled in the four-year Engineering Technology Programs are
educated
for careers as engineering technologists--specialists in the application of
science
for useful purposes. The engineering technologist works in close support of
engineers translating conceptual ideas into functioning systems and providing
supervisory direction for the implementation of these ideas by the technicians
and
craftsmen.

P. Udo-Inyang, Chair and Program Coordinator
(215) 204-7831
The baccalaureate curriculum in Environmental Science prepares students to
apply science to the solution of environmental problems. A broad exposure to
the sciences is required in order to prepare students for understanding the
nature
and the solution to these problems. Although science is the emphasis of this
curriculum, students may select a limited number of engineering oriented courses
in order to develop design skills. Selection of environmental elective courses
should achieve a broad background in aspects of air, water, noise, ionizing
radiation, and soil pollution.
Graduates are qualified to fill positions in governmental agencies dealing
with
environmental regulations and safety or positions requiring environmental
controls in industry. Students in this program are not seeking the professional
engineering license.

The baccalaureate curriculum in Materials Science will provide graduates with
expertise in materials used in the manufacture of all products used in our
society.
These materials range from common ones that have been used for centuries such
as tin, bronze, copper and glass. More recently, people working in the materials
science area have developed substances such as polymers, plastics,
semiconductors, superconductors, memory metals, high-performance specialized
alloys, ceramics, advanced composites and other materials that make the field of
materials science inherently multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary and guarantee
its
continued growth and vitality.
