Without engineers, much of the world as we know it wouldn’t exist. They’re responsible
for an extensive number of inventions we rely on every day. CBU’s engineering degree
gives students the broadest number of outcomes, offering concentrations in agriculture,
business, civil engineering, global applications, internet of things, mechanical engineering
and pre-med. Engineers have an innate curiosity to understand how things work and
that curiosity is what drives CBU’s graduates who are known for their leadership skills,
critical thinking and team spirit.
Work in the industry and gain real-world experience One of the most important parts of students’ college training will be learning in
a real engineering job. Students have a special course to prepare them for this first
engineering job. Their official internship will be the summer of their junior year,
although other opportunities may occur for them to work in the industry.
Learn how to manage projects Industrial representatives continue to emphasize that they wish new engineers had
more project management experience. Engineering students in their junior year work
with and co-mentor business students. Our goal is that eventually all students in
our program will develop one of their own creative ideas and go through the process
to receive a provisional patent.
Have a cross-cultural experience The current dean understands the value of engineering in a global context and the
importance of becoming globally aware having spent almost two years in India as a
tentmaker in the "Silicon Valley of Asia." Currently, opportunities are being developed
for engineering students to travel to and work in China, India, Korea, Rwanda, the
Caribbean and Central America.

Student Testimonials
"I chose engineering because I like to problem solve and I liked physics in high school.
All the professors at CBU are really smart and they love Jesus. They have helped me
think about how to integrate faith into my profession." Luke Dix, 2021
"I like designing and building things. This program has a lot of hands-on classes and
internship opportunities. I've been looking into the automotive industry and aerospace
but I'm not completely sure yet what I want to do with my degree. The engineering
program believes that service in the community is a great way to give back while using
engineering skills, and they acknowledge different perspectives on certain ideas." Darren Gamble, 2021
"I like to figure out how things work. I'm not sure yet what I want to do specifically,
but I do know I want to be a mechanical engineer." Domingo Vargas, 2020

John Butler
Assistant Professor
Prior to becoming an assistant professor at CBU in 2018, I worked here for 4 years
as an adjunct professor and also as a research engineer in a nanofabrication cleanroom
at UCR. During my time at UCR, I have helped train the next generation of engineers
on how to conduct their research in the nanoscale. My research has resulted in eight
papers within peer-reviewed journals. In my free time I enjoy music, movies and traveling.
