Program Outcomes
The Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering Science at the College of Staten Island is a modern practical approach to engineering education. The engineering student receives a broad engineering, mathematical and scientific background which permits flexibility and adjustment to the rapidly changing techniques of contemporary engineering. Students study in brand new superbly equipped laboratories. The program also has several state-of-the-art research laboratories that provide opportunities for undergraduate students to participate in research programs at the college. We have found that students who qualify for research programs are also more highly employable in today's engineering marketplace.
The engineering science program offers a number of concentrations usually taken in the senior year for students to explore and prepare for particular areas of engineering and to prepare for graduate work in a specialized field. Concentrations are available in:
We also offer a joint major between Engineering Science and Physics. We encourage Physics major who share much of their course work with Engineering Science to take this option to improve their employability in case they do not go on to graduate school.
The department also has a state of the art Astrophysical Observatory that performs many new exciting astrophysical experiments with students contemplating the physics or aerospace fields.
Student-faculty ratios are kept small in the Engineering Science program, allowing students to receive personal attention in their education. The tuition cost of the program is very modest and competitive, in comparison to private schools, since public education, in general, is strongly supported by tax levied dollars. Many international students attend our program and help create a stimulating atmosphere at our school. Housing is available locally and an excellent public transportation system makes the school easily accessible for off campus living. The school is adjacent to an exit of the Staten Island Expressway that connects the four main bridges to Staten Island making car transportation from Staten Island, Brooklyn and New Jersey a relatively quick experience.
