School Information

Entrepreneurial engineering, innovation, leadership, and an emphasis in transforming concepts into tangible results are the hallmarks of this School!

The School of Engineering and Technology offers four Bachelor of Science degree programs in Engineering at the Quad Cities campus. These programs are the only public Bachelor of Science Engineering degree programs in the Quad Cities region, and they provide our students many unique opportunities to work with industry through paid internship programs and senior design projects. Additionally, students can participate in many entrepreneurial high-technology development projects. Please see wiu.edu/cbt/set for details. All Engineering programs emphasize innovation, hands-on laboratories, small, intimate classroom settings, mentoring by faculty, and thinking-outside-the-box solutions.

The School also offers a Bachelor of Science in Construction and Facilities Management (Macomb campus) and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology (Macomb and Quad Cities campuses). Additionally, the School offers minors in Construction and Facilities Technology, Industrial Technology, Manufacturing Technology, and Operations Management.

All degree programs offered by the School of Engineering and Technology require completion of 120 semester hours and can be finished in four years, depending on the student鈥檚 preparation in mathematics. Although the freshman and sophomore years of all Engineering degrees can be completed at the 澳门六合彩历史记录 Macomb campus or at a community college, all four years can be completed at the Quad Cities campus. Engineering students must take their junior and senior engineering courses at the Quad Cities campus.

Transfer students (i.e., from schools other than 澳门六合彩历史记录) have special requirements. Please consult the Engineering Transfer Students section or the Technology Transfer Students section, as appropriate, for additional details about transferring into one of the School's degree programs.

Students learn to organize and optimize resources to develop, create, operate, maintain, and manage projects. The program includes a strong foundation in hands-on learning coupled with business management principles and practices.

Engineering Transfer Students

There are two primary paths for transfer students to enter the program: 1) transfer from a two- or four-year institution, or 2) through the Linkages program, where students co-register with 澳门六合彩历史记录 Engineering and a partner college.

Transfer students seeking admission to any engineering program must satisfy general University admissions requirements. Advanced placement credit for 18 hours of select lower-division Engineering courses from a community college or from a non-ABET accredited Engineering program will be provisionally granted providing the following is true: 1) the student earned a minimum grade of 鈥淐鈥� or above (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) for completed courses that are deemed equivalent as determined by the School, 2) the courses conform with IAI standards, and 3) the student completes the first 9 semester hours of 300-level Engineering courses with a 鈥淐鈥� or above. Final advanced placement credit will be granted upon proof of passing the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam. Please contact the School of Engineering with any questions.

Students seeking transfer credit for required engineering, mathematics, and science courses must have earned a grade of C or better in all such courses to receive full credit (see degree requirements).

Technology Transfer Students

Transfer students seeking admission to Construction and Facilities Management or Engineering Technology must satisfy general University admissions requirements. A cumulative grade point average of 鈥淐鈥� or higher (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) is required.

Normally, completing an Associate of Science (A.S.) degree at most community colleges will provide the required foundation to transfer to 澳门六合彩历史记录 to pursue a technology-related degree. A grade of 鈥淐鈥� or higher is required to receive general education credit for a writing course. Classes that fulfill Foreign Language/Global Issues requirement requirements must be approved by academic coordinator or advisor. Additional math coursework may be required based on the student鈥檚 Mathematics placement scores. Computer literacy is required.

Generally, no more than 67 semester hours (s.h.) will transfer from community colleges. Although students transferring to 澳门六合彩历史记录 are required to take a minimum of 60 s.h. from 澳门六合彩历史记录 or another accredited four-year institution, transfer students in these majors generally earn at least 63 s.h. from 澳门六合彩历史记录. Students are encouraged to consult with 澳门六合彩历史记录 academic coordinators and/or advisors for full assessment of credit transfers.
