DEPARTMENT INFORMATION:
The College of Engineering, Mathematics, and Science (EMS) enrolls approximately 3,400 students in ABET-accredited BS degree programs in Civil, Electrical, Environmental, Industrial, Mechanical and Software Engineering, and Engineering Physics and BS degrees in Mathematics, Broad Field Science, Chemistry, Computer Science, and Sustainable and Renewable Energy Systems. The College of EMS also participates in a statewide Collaborative Engineering Program that allows place-bound undergraduate students to complete their BS degrees in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering with minimal travel. In addition, the College has an online Master of Science in Engineering program, which has been designated as a "Best Buy" in online education. Students may choose a technical emphasis in Engineering Design, Applications in Engineering Management, Control (Electrical) Systems, or Structural/Geotechnical Engineering.
Mechanical Engineering is the largest of UW-Platteville's ABET-accredited programs with an enrollment of approximately 1,100. The main program is housed on the UW-Platteville campus with additional sites at UW-Fox Valley and UW-Washington County. Courses are also taught via streaming video to other 2-year campuses across the state.
