Why Online Engineering? • I am a married father of three boys and I work full time at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California. I am . . . in pursuit of a B.S. in Engineering Management. I plan to move from a technical assignment into a management position after completing the program. - Paul A. • I'm working towards an electrical engineering degree in the hopes that when my second enlistment is up we will have a stable home without worries when it comes to finding work. Being a single mom in the military is tough . . . – Alycia B.
Why Online Engineering? • I live over 200 miles from any traditional college, so online courses are the only way I can obtain a degree. I have been out of school for over 30 years and am looking forward to the challenge that awaits . . . – Michael P. • I work full time as an electrical designer for an engineering firm and am taking the plunge to get my degree in Electrical Engineering. My wife and I thought I was the only person crazy enough to tackle this while working full-time with two kids, but after reading other introductions I am glad to see there are many other crazy people out there! - James R.
Why Online Engineering? • I am a non-traditional student. I . . . earned an Associates of Science in Mathematics the spring of 2010. Shortly there after I took two years off from completing a bachelors degree, because it was impossible to find an accredited academic institution that offered an A.B.E.T. recognized engineering program with courses outside of the nine-to-five schedule or online. For many non-traditional students this circumstance places an engineering education out of reach to many willing and experienced people. . . . - Jason E.
