Cooperative Engineering Program
Contact: Dr. Sheila Waggoner, Chair Department of Mathematics, sheilaw@stthom.edu
The University of St. Thomas offers students the opportunity to prepare for a career in engineering or technology while obtaining a quality liberal arts education. There is need today for professionals who have both technical training and a broad background in the arts, humanities, logic and philosophy. Engineers and technicians apply mathematics, science and technology to utilize the materials and forces of nature for better living. A strong grounding in the liberal arts enables people to view their work in a broad perspective. Engineering executives must make decisions that have social and cultural consequences as well as technical implications. The graduate with resources beyond technical skills is best able to progress in the engineering field.
The University of St. Thomas has cooperative agreements with Texas A&M University, the University of Houston and the University of Notre Dame. The student earns a BA degree in Mathematics from the University of St. Thomas and a BS degree in the chosen discipline at the cooperative institution. During the three years at the University of St. Thomas, the student completes an individualized plan of study that combines a broad liberal arts background with the prerequisites for the program at the chosen school. Students interested in the program should contact the Chair of the Department of Mathematics. |
