Housed in the May School of Arts and Sciences , the Department of Engineering offers a major and minor in Computer Engineering and a Major and Minor in Electrical Engineering.

Departmental Mission:

The humanistic engineering programs at Stonehill College prepare students for the position of leadership, service, and global citizenship.

Integration of strong liberal arts curriculum in science and engineering encourage our students to critique science and technology in economical, historical, political, and cultural context.

Our mission is to graduate students who are compassionate, ethical, and agents of change who have influence that extends beyond STEM discipline.

Educational Objectives:

Following is the listing of the Program Educational Objectives for the undergraduate Computer and Electrical Engineering program. Three to five years after graduation, our graduate will demonstrate:

  • Technical competence, including design and problem-solving approaches leading to meaning full designs that have positive economic, environmental and social impact. [Problem Solving and Engr System Design]
  • Leaderships skills through their daily interactions and further support the success of others by creating the culture of collaboration. [Communication]
  • Commitment to humanitarian values, such as being committed to equality, inclusion, diversity, and social justice, while solving technical problems, ethically and responsibly. [Humanistic values]
  • Commitment to lifelong learning through the pursuit of advanced degrees, knowledge, skills, values and professional development in their field. [Life-Long Learning]

Student Outcomes

To achieve the educational objectives, the graduates of the program will have and ability to:

  • Identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics [ Fundamental/Problem Solving]
  • Apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors [Design]
  • Communicate effectively with a range of audiences [Communications]
  • Recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts [Ethics/Profession/Economics]
  • Function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives [Teamwork]
  • Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions [Experiment/Results]
  • Acquire and apply new knowledge using appropriate learning strategies [Diversity and LLL]

Dual Degree Program

Stonehill College has affiliation agreements with The University of Notre Dame to offer a five-year dual degree program in science and engineering. Students enrolled in the program matriculate for three years at Stonehill College and then transfer to either The University of Notre Dame for two years. Those who complete the program receive two degrees: a bachelor’s degree in one of the sciences from Stonehill College and a second bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline from The University of Notre Dame.

Students in this program will also complete the  Core Curriculum requirements of Stonehill College. The dual degree ensures that students will graduate with both a strong liberal arts background and the requisite knowledge for a career in an engineering field.

Students may choose one of the following Stonehill College/The University of Notre Dame degree combinations:
