Engineering is the creative and innovative ideas, concepts and applications of science, mathematical techniques, and empirical evidence to the design, construction, and maintenance of structures, machines, devices, systems, and organizations. This program focuses on giving the practical and theoretical applications of things on the basis of science, mathematics, logic, etc.
Most of the engineering educational institutes are accredited to any of the recognized accrediting agencies as students prefer colleges with accreditation facility. Few accrediting agencies for engineering are:
Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)
Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP)
Mathematics is one of the common subjects which come under all streams of engineering. Subjects vary depending on the stream of engineering you take up.
An Associate’s degree requires 60-65 credits and takes 2 years to be completed. This engineering program can be a start-up of your journey to achieve other higher degrees in engineering.
A Bachelor’s degree requires 120-130 credits and takes 4-5 years to be completed. It provides in-depth knowledge about the engineering program and the aspects of engineering.
A Master’s degree requires 30-45 credits and takes 2 years to be completed. People take up masters to expertise themselves and learn advanced techniques in a particular field.
A Doctorate’s degree requires 60-70 credits and takes 3-6 years to be completed. People who go for advanced study and research in any of the engineering fields are given a doctorate in engineering. People who take up their research in applied science are also given a doctorate in engineering.
The minimum GPA a student must get in their high school diploma to enter an engineering field is 2.0 – 3.0 GPA.
The engineering program provides a better understanding of the different fields of engineering. The program equips the students with skills and abilities to explore new skills develop logical reasoning, creativity, problem-solving, and implementing the ideas and concepts to create new structures and machines.
