Engineering
Engineering at Northwestern strives to conduct research and development to meet shared and critical industry needs while developing a highly skilled engineering workforce. The goal is to catalyze breakthrough solutions for industry partners with consideration of regulations, standard procedures, ethical practices and contemporary technologies.
Program Distinctives
When your time in Northwestern’s engineering program comes to a close, you will have confidence in your knowledge and skills, and a strong foundation of faith and character that will allow to you to make a lasting impact on the world for God’s glory.
Because of University of Northwestern’s small class sizes, students are able to get a more personalized education. Professors truly take an interest in students and are able to provide one-on-one attention that helps each individual excel.
Interested in partnering with the School of Science & Engineering?
The School of Science & Engineering’s Engineering program offers collaborative support from faculty with expertise in the areas of biotechnology, instrumentation, physical and computational modeling, fluid dynamics, coatings, materials, and transportation. UNW students entering the engineering field offer their skillset as a resource to develop ideas and formulate solutions. The goal is to create breakthrough solutions for industrial partners with consideration for standard procedures, ethical practices, and contemporary technologies.

Engineering Majors
The Bachelor of Science in Engineering major consists of 47 credits for core courses and at least 30 credits in any of the following concentrations: civil, electrical, mechanical, or general engineering. The degree is granted upon completion of 130 credits (40 credits must be in 3000- or 4000-level courses).
The Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering major consists of 135 credits.
Engineering Laboratories
Engineering Laboratories
In support of project-based learning, industry related collaboration, and course specific topics, the department equips, maintains, and seeks to expand the following laboratories with both industry-standard and educational equipment.
I learned how valuable it was to be curious about the projects I was working on. When I allowed myself to be curious, I asked more questions which gave me a deeper understanding of the project. With that understanding, I was able to be more independent and successful in my work.
Meet Your Professors
