at Shorelight Group - University of Dayton USA

Students dive deep into rhetoric and composition, learning about language and the context in which it is written and read.

The University of Dayton School of Engineering chemical engineering program is one of only a few universities in the nation involved in the modeling, control and automation of composite processing.

You'll develop scholarship, research and lab skills and excel in professional or continued graduate work. Our extensive course selection includes chemical, bio-sensors, chemical reactor analysis, and combustion as well as advanced work in nanomaterials and fuel cells. We also offer you special opportunities, including courses with the Dayton Area Graduate Studies Institute, evening courses and federally funded research.

Career Outlook and Highlights

• Our graduate chemical engineering students enjoy a nearly 100 percent placement rate.
• With over 30,000 chemical engineering jobs in the U. S., you'll enjoy an abundant amount of career offerings.
• We feature for sponsored research with the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) and Wright Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) as well as other regional industries.
• For your research, our wide-range of on-campus labs include unit operations, transport phenomena and process control.

The issues facing us today are increasingly global in nature. The context in which we lead our professional and personal lives is steadily becoming more multicultural and global in scope, demanding new levels of international knowledge - knowledge beyond just geography, a few phrases of a foreign language, and a guide book.

Find and develop your own compositional voice and learn how to turn your musical ideas into dynamic performances and published works. Students hone their skills in styles they are passionate about while breaking out of their comfort zone and exploring diverse genres from early counterpoint to the latest popular styles.

Students have the opportunity to create their own program of study. If you have a specific project in mind or want to study a combination of writing and literature, you can work closely with an adviser to plan a track toward your UD degree.

Here, we know that good business does more than make money. It drives innovation. It creates new opportunities. And it even helps solve the world's most pressing problems.

As a UD entrepreneurship major, you'll learn to launch and sustain a business. But this program does not simply talk theory; it involves real decisions and action. During the Sophomore Experience, you will create and run a microbusiness with $5,000 in start-up capital.

Economics is a social science and as such an important component of the liberal arts curriculum. It provides a useful background for students interested in careers in public policy, business or finance.

Students who study economics investigate the allocation of scarce resources. The foundation of economics is based on theories of how people, institutions and governments make choices and interact. Some of the topics that a student of economics studies are: pricing, the effects of taxing and regulation by the government, inflation, income distribution and international trade.

Because Economics straddles the worlds of business and social science, the demand for economics majors is strong in both the public and private sector. Economics is also great preparation for graduate school in fields as diverse as business, law, and public policy.

As a UD Foreign Language Education major, you'll learn the knowledge and skills necessary to meet the needs of our changing and global world — and prepare others to do the same. Upon graduation, you'll be prepared to teach French, German or Spanish to students in Pre-Kindergarten through grade 12. 

Students gain technical and conceptual skills in the field of photography, with opportunities to collaborate across a wide range of fields and disciplines within the art world and beyond.

There is more than one way to start an engineering career. If you are a hands-on person who enjoys learning by doing, engineering technology may be the pathway for you to become an engineer. Our Mechanical Engineering Technology program offers technical courses that teach you to use creativity and rational thinking to solve problems in design, manufacturing and management, as well as science and mathematics courses that provide you a solid foundation for future studies or career development.

With our small class sizes, faculty members with real-world engineering experience, and state-of-the-art laboratory facilities, we utilize hands-on learning to equip students with applied engineering knowledge and skills. Career opportunities for mechanical engineering technology graduates are in mechanical design, computer-aided design, product evaluation and development, manufacturing engineering, computer-aided manufacturing, plant engineering, technical sales, technical service, fluid power, automation, and technical management.
