Facilities About

The laboratories form an integral and integrated part of the curriculum, enabling students to

• Acquire the ability to apply science and engineering science to the analysis and modeling of engineering problems,
  
• Experience first-hand comparisons of theory and experiment, and to understand, explain and communicate that understanding to various audiences,
  
• Develop a complex set of communications, group interaction, management and work-oriented skills, and
  
• Perform engineering design both as an individual and as a member of a team, addressing problems which include realistic constraints of physical, economic, ecological, political, and social nature.
  

The laboratories can be considered the link between the engineering sciences and the design component of the curriculum. Along with design, they constitute the principal vector for the development of communication and work-oriented skills in the curriculum.
