Civil/Mechanical Engineering

Our four-year 40-credit engineering program offers students the opportunity to explore Civil/Mechanical Engineering Technologies from both the theoretical and applied perspectives. This program culminates with the CARTS project, combining Academic Research and Technical Studies and the senior thesis. Students enrolled at the Academy begin their engineering journey with the Exploratory Program. Upon completion of the Exploratory Program, students matriculate in one of the two engineering majors, for the remaining three and a half years. Mechanical/Civil Engineering encompasses course work in two areas of study: energy, which includes courses in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer; and engineering design, with courses in strength of materials and mechanical design. Students enrolled in the Edison Academy participate in a dual-degree track with Middlesex College to earn an Associate's Degree in Mathematics.
