Overview
The PMU College of Engineering will be dedicated to recruiting the highest caliber students, to retaining them through guidance and direction, and to graduating degreed engineers who will compete and be recognized both locally and in a global society. To further fulfill this mission, an ongoing and active recruitment program will be carried out to attract faculty and staff who will not only be recognized nationally for their expertise, but also for their ability to impart to students the skills most needed to function in a competitive work environment.
The PMU College of Engineering will be comprised of the following academic units:
- Department of Civil Engineering
- Department of Electrical Engineering
- Department of Mechanical Engineering
These basic level engineering programs will be designed to give the student an understanding of the fundamental principles underlying engineering and engineering practice. Each engineering curriculum will contain core curriculum courses designed to develop a solid foundation in mathematics, chemistry, and physics, with a general background in social and behavioral sciences. Building on this background, the engineering courses will provide application of basic principles and the analysis of engineering systems. The engineering design component of the curriculum in each major subject area will provide the engineering student with methods and techniques for the solution of technological problems in society.
Laboratory facilities in the College of Engineering will be equipped to facilitate learning. In these labs, students will become familiar with the instruments, procedures, and processes employed by industry. Computer laboratories will be available for students’ use throughout their course of study. In addition, every student will be required to have his own laptop computer.
