Pre-Engineering

As our population continues to grow, engineers are more in-demand than ever, as an increased population means an increase in the number of bridges, roads, tunnels, houses, buildings and other structures which need to be built and maintained. Engineers also address society’s needs and problems on so many levels other than just infrastructure. At a molecular level, engineers work on drug delivery systems that work inside cells. At a macro level, they quantify the particle flow of pollutants through soil to clean up oil spills, abandoned industrial sites and other biohazards. At a galactic level, engineers design spacecraft for outer space exploration. At an atomic level, they are developing data storage that focuses on the spin of electrons in atoms. Clean drinking water, safe food storage, the protection of our environment, circuit board development, airplane design, mining practice and so much more begins with an engineer.

As an engineer, you will be a problem solver, organizer, communicator and designer. You will identify problems and provide solutions. With a degree in engineering, you will use math and science in practical applications to figure out how things work. If you want to work in an arena that takes theoretical science and makes it a reality, then engineering might be the right choice for you.

In Concordia University, Nebraska’s pre-engineering program, you will gain a solid background in mathematics and the physical sciences, as well as computer science, the humanities and social sciences. Our broad foundation of courses will prepare you for further education in engineering graduate school and an eventual career in one of the many specialty areas of engineering, such as aerospace, agricultural, chemical, civil, electrical, environmental, industrial or mechanical engineering.
