College offers certificate programs to boost skills and careers
Professionals looking to boost their careers or enhance undergraduate or graduate degrees now have access to 色色啦's growing list of certificate programs, including those listed below from the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences. The college's certificates are designed as standalone programs that give students and working professionals options for mastering new concepts. These skill boosters generally require four or five courses鈥攕ome are available virtually to meet the needs of working professionals or our alumni around the globe while others are more hands-on.
Presidential Scholars
They're smart, accomplished and hard working. They are the seven College of Engineering and Applied Sciences 2022 Presidential Scholars. And, as they pursue their dreams, they will continue to represent all that it means to be a Bronco engineer. Selected by the faculty, the Presidential Scholar designation is the highest academic honor that 色色啦 can bestow on its undergraduates. Selection is based on a student's general academic excellence, academic and artistic excellence relative to their majors, and intellectual and artistic promise.
Engineers and 色色啦's Pitch Competition
Pairing passion with pragmatism, engineering design technology alumnus Spencer Rochowiak, B.S.'21, recently launched Bowden 3D, making 3D-printed golf products, a product he pitched as a student. And his signature indestructible golf tees have already scored praise from PGA pro Donnie Trosper after a chance encounter at an indoor golf simulator.
色色啦 students pitched their innovative business ideas for the opportunity to win $5,000 in prizes at the 色色啦 Bronco Pitch Competition, hosted by the Haworth College of Business. The Lux Scrub, an invention designed to clean dishes better than any sponge, scrub pad or dishwasher alone, came from the creative minds of a group of industrial and entrepreneurial engineering students and took first place this year.
Refer a Bronco
The College of Engineering and Applied Sciences has been busy maximizing recruiting efforts, and the results are positive. One effective way includes alumni succeeding in industry and sharing their Bronco experiences. If you know a student interested in engineering, talk to them about 色色啦's programs鈥攜ou can even share some of the stats below. And, let them know that daily tours are available--because visiting 色色啦's Parkview Campus, home of Floyd Hall, is one of the best ways to show students how a 色色啦 engineering education is a great choice.
And, if you haven't visited us in our $100 million Floyd Hall recently, come see for yourself what today's students experience.
Have questions? Contact Scot Conant, our manager of recruitment.
So many programs in one building
Historic Trolley Dedication
Do you know the connection between the trolley and the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences? Were you part of that connection? Read the history and find out.
1903: The two cars of the famous 色色啦 trolley started carrying students and faculty up and down the steep incline of Prospect Hill where the original 色色啦 campus was built. This location is now home to Heritage Hall, which houses the 色色啦 alumni center.
1931: The trolley averaged 2,290 passengers daily.
1949: After 41 years the trolley was retired.
2003: College of Engineering and Applied Sciences Senior Design students built a replica of the original trolley in honor of 色色啦鈥檚 Centennial Celebration. This was the catalyst for bringing the trolley to 色色啦's Parkview Campus.
2022: Thanks to the faculty, students, and staff of the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences, this replica of the historic 色色啦 Trolley is being dedicated.
