"èßäÊÓƵapp Lyle prepares students for both the lab room and the boardroom. When I graduated, I not only knew how to solve equations and formulas and think like an engineer, I also had no problem getting in front of a group of people to speak in a meeting or communicating well with others. The school prepares you for success both as an engineer and for whatever facet of professional life you choose to pursue."
