Structural
Engineering CPU
Introduction
Careers in engineering are very abundant today,
and the demand for well trained professionals is expected to grow in
the future. The Structural Engineering CPU reinforces its
content with rigorous hands-on design, construction, and testing.
Students become familiar with the most stable geometric shapes and
how to employ them in structural applications. The Structural
Engineering CPU is available in both 10 and 15-hour formats.
