Engage With Your Peers

A common misconception of online programs is that they are impersonal. But like most educational experiences, you get back what you put in. Take advantage of discussion boards and live study sessions to get to know your fellow engineering students. You'll have the opportunity to absorb professional and technical knowledge that can transform the way you think about tackling engineering problems—and you can impart knowledge that will do the same for your classmates.

I really liked interacting with the other students through the discussion boards. Even though we’re spread throughout the country, I still feel like I got to know my classmates.… It feels like a close-knit community even though you’ve never met face to face.
Kaitlyn Lewis (CWR, ’16)

Track Your Progress

Each course guides you through a weekly path of prescribed tasks that build in complexity as you learn, master and are evaluated on defined objectives. Know where you are at all times with an elegant tracking system built exclusively for the LMS that delivers your online engineering courses, featuring an online gradebook that informs you in real time of your status on all assignments, tests and course progress.
