About the L.C. Smith College of Engineering & Computer Science
Syracuse University offers undergraduate engineering programs in aerospace, chemical, civil, computer, electrical, environmental, and mechanical engineering, in bioengineering and in engineering physics. The college also offers computer science and systems and information science. Because engineers and computer scientists must be prepared to communicate their technical knowledge and expertise in a variety of dynamic contexts, the degree programs at Syracuse combine liberal arts and technical education, so graduates are well prepared to succeed and thrive in our highly complex and technical society.
The Summer College Engineering & Computer Science program combines a college-level introduction to engineering with study in related subjects. All students take Engineering (ECS) 125 Survey of Engineering Problems, a three-credit course that combines lectures, projects, and field trips that acquaint you with the many branches of the engineering profession.
You'll explore the roles of creativity and problem-solving in the profession, as well as learn the basic tools used in engineering, including computer-assisted drafting, spread sheets, programming, estimating, and systems analysis. On-campus visits to teaching and research laboratories and off-campus field trips supplement lectures and hands-on projects and experiments. The concluding design project, the High-Power Rocket Team Challenge, incorporates elements from all disciplines, emphasizes integration of new technologies, and underscores the importance of teamwork, deadlines, and predictable results. You'll learn how your interests and aptitudes in science, math, and technology relate to study and careers in engineering.
For your second three-credit course, you will enroll in selected courses to support your study of engineering. You may decide that a mathematics or computer course is the perfect complement to ECS 125. Or you might choose to study writing to boost your skills in critical thinking and communication.
