ACCREDITED ENGINEERING PROGRAMS

All our undergraduate engineering programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, a nonprofit, non-governmental agency that accredits college and university programs in the disciplines of applied science, computing, engineering, and engineering technology.

Energy Business and Finance Major

The solutions to society's existing and emerging energy challenges require interdisciplinary approaches integrating economics and business with the technical knowledge of energy systems and implications for our environment. That's where Energy Business and Finance experts come in.
