This breadth of skills is needed bygraduates who will become effective leaders in areas such as infrastructure enhancement, andenvironmental preservation. To best meet these needs, the engineering curriculum at RowanUniversity emphasizes: (i) "hands-on" and team oriented education; (ii) inter and multi-disciplinary education; (iii) use and
