Hi, my name is Eric rezar. And I am the program coordinator for the Engineering and Applied Science Education courses. And I'm also the program coordinator for the Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree program. Welcome to my presentation. So you, you, you may be unsure of what you want to do here, you, you feel like you need to be an engineer but but maybe you don't know what kind of engineer you want to be. Or maybe you have have a desire to have an engineering undergraduate degree and you move on to something further in your career and maybe something different. There's so many different choices in engineering. And if you're in that place, then this presentation and this degree program is for you. Okay, so what are our choices for engineering majors? What do we have? Well, obviously, we have our engineering GP, which is a general engineering program that covers all the various majors and then gives you a general background and everything. But just also different engineering majors as well that that you could choose to go into, let's say, you're not sure now what you want to do, you're undecided, you don't know where you want to ultimately settle, then you can can take this program first. For the first year, you could do general engineering. And we'll cover all the various engineering disciplines in this general engineering program and the courses that you take, including information about the degree program, information about about the market pay, problems doing problems and every discipline, the mechanical, civil, electrical, computer science, industrial systems chemical, and it'll give you a well rounded picture of all of them. And then by then, if you're undecided, after that first year, you will be able to be decided for sure. But also this program is for individuals who wish to have a more broad major for for their undergrad degree or a broad engineering general type of major that they can then build their career on top of by combining this major with, with other possible future paths like biomedical business, national security, or any other discipline that you may wish to combine the engineering major with. So when it's about University in New Haven, why would you want to come here? Well, this is a great place to be University of New Haven, our focuses on students, we have excellent, excellent teachers here, ready to serve, you can do research with faculty, well, one of the few institutions that undergraduates can do actual research with faculty if they wish to do that. Our focus is on preparing you for the profession. You know, what do you need to do to succeed on the job, that is our goal is our focus to get you ready to be successful when you walk in that door that first day and your first, your first job or your career. And we have close interaction with faculty, you know, a lot of institutions that you go to, when you go into your undergraduate classes, you're not being taught by professors you've been taught by grad students. So not here at UNH, at this university Haven, you will be in our engineering school taught by engineering faculty from day one. And our unique curriculum also helps you develop professional skills, a teamwork, multidisciplinary Systems Thinking entrepreneurial mindset, communication skills. We have a spiral approach to developing our understanding our engineering fundamentals, all these things working together, gives you a value added experience, you'll get the University of New Haven that you may not get elsewhere. So let's talk about two examples of our spiral curriculum. What am I mean by spiral curriculum? Well, basically that means that that we are spiraling around in each of your courses that you take the various disciplines I'm teaching you the basic concepts of all those disciplines which gives you a well rounded view and the world well rounded experience of what engineering is all about. This first first examples first slide here of the two I'm going to show you is about a circus example. This would be from the discipline of electrical engineering. What did we show you? Well, our first course is yet EAS 1107. And we will talk about simple series and parallel circuits. So by the equivalent resistance, and then the second one in ESC 1112. When we start talking about purchase Voltage Law encourages current law has to do with doing some nice Sixth Circuit analysis. And then in the third course, yes 2211. And we talked about RC circuits and superposition. And finally, when we get to the ASC 230, that we're dealing with transformers and AC current. So the multiple disciplinary courses that you see before you, they're taught using active collaborative learning methods. Active learning is more natural way of learning. It's the way that we learned. When we were young, you know, how do babies learn how to walk? Well, they try, they get up and they watch and they try and they're active. They, they experiment. And that's kind of what with our approaches here at University, New Haven, it's an active learning, you learn by doing stuff. And we have extra class time that we devote in these classes, specifically doing hands on activities and problem solving, and lab work. And like, I promised you another example. So here's an example mechanic example. So you can think of this maybe as a mechanical engineering type of focus for for those courses. Here, level seven, same course, by the way, these are the same. This. The same is the same course that you've seen before. The first two are the same courses. And actually, the first three are the same courses. factors result in forces. And then you have stress and strain and the equilibrium in ESC 1112. And then then 2201, you have equilibrium moment of inertia. And then 2221, we do torsion and shear forces. Wonderful, wonderful stuff. So let's talk about the ESC 1107. The introduction to engineering courses, just just to the side about the first course you'll be taking. As you can see, it's hands on lessons, look at the pictures. This is stuff you will be doing in class, and learning a variety of technologies. We know 3d printing, laser cutting, 2d and 3d modeling, application based exploration of the fields of engineering. And as you can see, it's very project focused. Yes, look at those pictures. You could be sitting in those in those spots doing this stuff. University of New Haven, great place today. So here are some instructors that you can learn from these. These are people who are you know, our teachers here in the in the program, people that you will get to know very well, Alex, here's me and some individuals here. All of us here are excited and eager to meet you. And to teach you what we know. So if you're undecided, this engineering Bachelor of Science Engineering degree allows you a lot of flexibility. Yes, you are an engineering student from day one from the first day from that moment. And you can decide on your specific major later. see before you is a bunch of doors. If you don't know which door to open to go down this engineering degree program is for you. You don't have to make a quick decision on what your ultimate major is going to be. You can choose that later and start on your your adventure. Also, for the rest of engineering students who wish to actually pursue that as their main undergraduate degree, we do have options for you as well. You can see that there's many different focus areas and concentrations you can choose from and minors. You can focus on business and finance, communication, technical communications, biomedical engineering, and biology or data science and computer science. These, these will give you the opportunity to to construct your program based on what your career goal is and where you want to go on the job. We also have three dual degree programs a dual degree program is a combo bachelor's degree and master's degree that you can get in five years of studying. The first one is our our ES of engineering, MS and biomedical engineering degree program. With fat five years you'll come out with years of engineering degree, a minor in biology and of course your masters to Gregan biomedical engineering for the business focused individual. We have our BS engineering, MBA dual degree program. And for that in five years, you'll come out with your BS of engineering degree, a minor in business. And of course, you're a master of business administration degree.
And we have a program of bs of engineering for the national security focused individual who may wish to pursue a career that's a national security but heavily technology based national security type work. This dual degree program is based on engineering, Master science, national security. And for that program, in five years, you'll come out with your BS engineering degree and minor in national security, and your Master of Science in national security. So here's active learning activities that our students are doing. Right now all these pictures were taken here at University of New Haven, each one of them is what students are experiencing. Here. I'm on the job here at the University simulating a job type experiences that that you can experience as well if you come here. Okay, so everyone has their own path. And me, I am the advisor, I guide you through your path. So there's my email, you can contact me anytime that you wish. Thank you very much.
