Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Engineering] From Bethel University

In our experience, dual-degree grads have great success obtaining job offers. Employers really do appreciate students who have received the broader education that a B.A. degree provides. A big part of any engineer?s success lies in his or her ability to communicate results to other engineers and the public. Liberal arts classes train you to communicate well both orally and in writing?skills that often receive minimal attention in a standard engineering program. In addition, Bethel?s broad course load provides more intensive work in mathematics and the sciences than the typical engineering major receives. Overall, the dual degree has a positive, long-term impact on your potential as an engineer, both in the ability to adapt to a changing technical environment, and as a leader or manager of other engineers.

Some students decide to work a little bit harder and earn their Bethel B.A. with a major in physics along with their engineering degree. This combination is particularly strong in the job market and for those who want to do graduate work in engineering research.
