Students in the Engineering and Design program are not only part of a National Pilot group of Engineering Academies, but students will learn the principles of engineering and how to draw and read plans utilizing Computer Aided Drafting and Design (CADD) computer software. The Engineering and Design program is “custom-designed” for aspiring engineers and architects.
