The Committee was responsible for planning and implementing a highly successful NSPE Annual Meeting held at the Detroit Plaza Hotel, July 1980. This award is funded by the Auxiliary members for a high ranking high school senior interested in pursuing a career in engineering. This grant is supported through contributions of friends, members and Fishbeck, Thompson, Carr and Huber. Applicants should demonstrate qualifications of high merit and professional ethics. Engineering courses have been available since 1937 and a B.S. Degree in engineering since 1985.
Concentrations are available in civil, chemical, computer, electrical and mechanical engineering.
Approximately 25 percent of the graduates go on to graduate school. In addition, Calvin graduates are also accepted into graduate programs as diverse as aerospace engineering, ocean engineering and bio-medical engineering. Concern for ethical and responsible design is emphasized within a broad cultural context. Kettering offers five-year, cooperative education programs leading to B.S. degrees in applied mathematics, applied physics, computer engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, environmental chemistry, industrial engineering, management, manufacturing systems engineering and mechanical engineering. All students must be accepted academically by Kettering University and then by a sponsoring business or organization.
