The faculty of the Woodruff School strive to continuously improve our undergraduate programs in Mechanical and Nuclear and Radiological Engineering. The following educational objectives reflect the needs, and have been reviewed by our various constituencies, to include the Advisory Board, the faculty, our students, etc.:

  • To prepare students for successful careers and life-long learning;
  • To train students thoroughly in methods of analysis, including the mathematical and computational skills appropriate for engineers to use when solving problems;
  • To develop the skills pertinent to the design process, including the students' ability to formulate problems, to think creatively, to communicate effectively, to synthesize information, and to work collaboratively;
  • To teach students to use current experimental and data analysis techniques for engineering application;
  • To instill in our students an understanding of their professional and ethical responsibilities.

Please send any comments regarding these objectives to Dr. Ferri.
