Overview

Engineering provides an engineering education built on math and science foundations.

Key Features

The Engineering program at James Madison University offers a world-class project-based undergraduate engineering experience based on a philosophy of learning by doing. The curriculum is designed to provide flexibility and choices; a modern way to specialize.

The required projects and engineering design experiences, in particular, provide a platform for in-depth exploration of real-world problems - creating better learning experiences, more substantial references, and a portfolio of engineering work to distinguish yourself. You will graduate project-ready, and be prepared for the flexibility and resilience needed in our rapidly changing work world.
