Mission Statement

The mission of the General Engineering program is to educate students within a caring Christian environment, in the disciplines of engineering. We want our graduates to be motivated by Christian ideals and view their career as a lifelong commitment to others. We strive to provide our students with a technical foundation that is both broad and strong, with an emphasis on professional, moral, ethical and leadership development.

BSE Program Educational Objectives

Within a few years after graduation, Baylor BSE. graduates will:

• Establish themselves as competent, successful, and responsible members within their chosen career vocation;
• Make career and professional judgments, including moral and ethical considerations, informed by Christian ideas; and
• Pursue opportunities for new knowledge and advancing skills through venues such as post-baccalaureate studies, continuing education, or mission field training.

BSE Expected Graduate Outcomes

• an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics;
