 The engineering program at CCU is intended to integrate faith, applied science, applied mathematics to solve problems, to optimize systems. We hope to take these concepts that we learn in things like calculus or linear algebra or physics and chemistry and we hope to apply those in a Christ-centered way that we can really make an impact for God's kingdom. This past summer I worked at Lockheed Martin as an intern on mechanisms and pyrotechnics for one of their space projects. That was really cool to experience firsthand to see how my classes will apply in the future to different industries like space. We do engineering but we do it with a Christian worldview. We do it with a biblical worldview. And that's one of the things that we're really going to strive to do here. We're going to strive to take what seem like applied math concepts in kind of just in a vacuum and we're going to say, no, these don't exist in a vacuum. Let's look at the way you analyze data, how that impacts people and how that impacts human values and how that potentially impacts the products that you make in terms of things like justice and in terms of things like equity, in terms of things like privacy and how do we do that but from a biblical foundation and we intentionally tie in the Bible. I think Colorado Christian University is really helping me to advance my learning and prepare me for what it looks like to be a steward and use my skills to advance God's kingdom in a cool way by using math and science.
