Coursework
Undergraduates take foundation studies classes in addition to their engineering courses. They learn the skill sets currently required for the careers they are pursuing. Professors -- many of them working professionals in the fields they teach -- teach practical, real-world skills. Undergraduate coursework also prepares students to go on for graduate degrees.

Career Opportunities
CTU prepares students for careers in technology-based industries. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) expects rapid growth in the availability of computer science jobs in the next few years. BLS predicts overall job opportunities in engineering will be good, varying by specialty. Starting salaries for engineers are among the highest of all college graduates.
