What happens after graduation?
Through small class sizes, class projects, senior projects,
internships, student activities and field-work, you will learn both
theory and application, which allows you to build a powerful
resume at the same time.
Through these experiences, our graduates often report that they are well prepared for their profession, whether it is graduate school or the workplace.
"Within six months of
commencement, 86 percent of
our graduates are either working
full-time or attending graduate
school. Some of our
departments, such as
Engineering and Nursing, report
100 percent placement rates."
