Engineering Design Minor
Coordinator: Dr. Richard Blackmon
The Engineering Design Minor will provide students a foundational engineering skillset that will enable them to apply engineering design for problem solving in non-engineering fields and to effectively collaborate with engineers.

Program Outcomes
Upon completion of the Engineering Design Minor, students will have:
1 - an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences;
2 - an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors;
3 - an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives;
4 - an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions; and
5 - an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
