Back to Concentration Selection

The focus of this concentration is to prepare students for the third year of a baccalaureate degree in engineering. The concentration emphasizes providing a strong foundation in the mathematical, physical, computer, and engineering sciences which constitute the core of all areas of engineering. Specialization in a particular engineering field (electrical, mechanical, chemical, civil, etc.) will occur upon transfer. The first two years of this concentration are articulated with the school of engineering at West Virginia State University. The four-year degree offers a comprehensive major in mathematics with a firm background in engineering, allowing students to pursue a graduate degree in engineering.
