At North Central you'll benefit from small classes and a faculty dedicated to teaching undergraduates. Engineering students participate in a wide variety of extracurricular activities, from theatrical productions to intercollegiate athletics. The 3-2 program gives you extra time to decide upon a particular area of engineering. You need not commit to a particular area until the middle of the third year. North Central engineers are well prepared for the final two years of study at prestigious engineering schools.
Most students earn the same grades at their engineering schools as they did at North Central.
North Central 3-2 engineers have won the prestigious Harold. P. Brown Fellowship at Washington University and served as president of the Industrial Engineering Honor Society at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. You'll earn the same B.S. degree as other engineers, but you'll enter the profession with a more extensive liberal arts background than most engineers. Consequently, you'll be more attractive to employers, who value the communication and critical thinking skills acquired through a liberal arts education.
