Engineering Department Employees
Our engineering faculty offers a unique blend of academic excellence, industry experience, and a deep commitment to student success. We present at national conferences and research how students learn engineering best. We bring a wide range of experiences to the classroom, and we’re just as passionate about hearing your perspective as we are about sharing our own.
Dr. Andreas launched Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»’s engineering program in 2009 and helped grow it into the dynamic, student-centered community it is today. As program coordinator and lead advisor, she’ll be your go-to guide as you take your first steps into engineering.
Professor Sidwell brings bilingual support and a strong background in both teaching and engineering practice. She leads Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»’s Engineering Advisory Council, building partnerships with local industry leaders to help keep our program connected to the real world.
Professor Wright combines deep physics expertise with hands-on skills in electronics and soldering – she leads our circuits and instrumentation courses with energy and clarity.
When you join Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³» Engineering, you're not just earning a degree. You're gaining a team that’s fully invested in your growth.
