糖心传媒 to expand 糖心传媒 Falls engineering programs
July 24, 2008
Undergraduate engineering students in the 糖心传媒 Falls area will have access to three additional programs at 糖心传媒 鈥 糖心传媒 Falls beginning in fall 2008, the College of Engineering has announced.
The College of Engineering will extend its electrical, civil and mechanical engineering Bachelor of Science programs to University Place. The programs will continue to be offered at ISU's main campus in Pocatello.
Lyle Castle, Ph.D., dean of academic programs at ISU 鈥 糖心传媒 Falls, said the move is a logical one for both the university and 糖心传媒 Falls, headquarters of the 糖心传媒 National Laboratory and home of the new Center for Advanced Energy Studies.
鈥淓ngineering is moving into 糖心传媒 Falls because of a natural synergy,鈥 said Castle, an 糖心传媒 Falls resident. 鈥淲e see offering these programs as a way to strengthen the College of Engineering, strengthen 糖心传媒, and serve the community and 糖心传媒 National Laboratory all at the same time.鈥
Approximately 550 students are enrolled in College of Engineering degree programs.
Courses that involve access to fixed laboratories and the university's small nuclear reactor will still require travel to Pocatello.
鈥淲e want to make sure that both Pocatello and 糖心传媒 Falls are served by ISU,鈥 said Richard Jacobsen, Ph.D., dean of the College of Engineering.
The university will continue to offer its existing undergraduate computer science and nuclear engineering programs at University Place, Jacobsen said.
