Calvin engineers solve problems in the real world. And in an energy-hungry society, one of the ways you’ll make a significant difference is by solving those problems sustainably.

Graduating from Calvin's energy, environment, and sustainability program means you’re committed to a bigger vision of what you can do as an engineer. It means everything you create takes into account the impact it will have on the people and places around you. It means you’ve immersed yourself in courses that analyze the most pressing environmental challenges and opportunities. And it means you embrace Calvin’s unique understanding of engineering as a way to serve, heal, and restore God’s creation.

It also means you’ll be well-suited for the job market. As more and more companies understand the importance of efficiency and sustainability, you are sure to stand out from the crowd.

Build and create in a fast-growing field.

Robotics and automation are transforming countless industries, from manufacturing to artificial intelligence to telecommunications. Whether it's self-driving cars or industrial robots, there's an unprecedented need for engineers who can imagine and build creative, efficient systems that use cutting-edge tech and thinking to solve age-old human needs.

In Calvin's mechatronics program, you'll gain skills and experience to lead in one of the fastest-growing fields in engineering. Your classes will ground you in engineering fundamentals that you can leverage in any career, while giving you practical experience with machine design, electronic controls, and computer programming.

When you integrate this technical expertise with Calvin's unique emphasis on the liberal arts, you'll graduate with everything you need to take a leadership role in a wide range of careers.

Discover how your studies and experiences—in any discipline—can contribute to the life and health of the church.

At Calvin, you'll learn how to confront injustice and promote renewal in your community, whether it's through preaching, teaching, service, evangelism, or faithful work in your career. But you won't just be handed a book—you're invited to volunteer in the community and complete an internship that immerses you in the daily habits and joys of ministry. All along the way, you'll ask challenging questions about how your learning and perspective can help sustain the life of the church.

With a minor in ministry leadership, you'll discover how your major, no matter what it is, can work toward justice and hope in your church community, neighborhood, and professional field.

You don’t have to be a professional athlete to jump into the sports field.

Study the business of sports at Calvin, one of the few Christian institutions to offer a major in this field. You’ll learn the business foundations and leadership skills to manage sport finances, events, media, facilities, and players. The next time you step onto the field or watch from the stadium, you’ll have a vastly different perspective on the game.

So dig your shoes in the dirt and get ready to score in the real world. Imagine yourself interning with an affiliate of the Tigers, Red Wings, or Pistons. Managing game day in our 362,000-square-foot athletics complex. Helping organize a nationally famous 25K run. You’ll be immersed in the sports industry well before you graduate.

Create and shape the chemical reactions that make modern life possible.

As one of the few Christian universities to offer an accredited chemical engineering concentration, Calvin offers something truly distinctive. Here, you'll thrive in small project-based courses. You'll find research opportunities you'd normally find at a much bigger school—with the supportive community you can only find at a smaller one.

You'll learn from expert chemistry and engineering faculty who are also committed Christians. They'll know you by name and champion you in your studies. They'll use their experience to connect you to internships that set you on course for a world-changing career.

You'll graduate with everything you need to succeed and something more: a Christian vision for the better world you're going to create.

Imagine using cutting-edge ideas and technology to work on today's most complex medical challenges: designing surgical robots that repair damage with incredible precision. Developing biomaterials that rebuild failing hearts and nerve systems. Creating prosthetics that restore active life to patients.

With a Calvin biomedical engineering minor, you’ll learn how to apply the foundational engineering knowledge at the intersection of medicine and technology. You'll engage with the latest science in classes that address anatomy, diseases, and therapies. You'll find internship opportunities in West Michigan's many hospitals, labs, and biomedical companies.

You'll also work one-on-one with Christian profs who will explain your career options and help you work toward your goal. When you graduate, you'll have the rock-solid engineering education and biomedical expertise that employers and graduate schools look for.

The professional health care sector is expected to grow faster than average for medical and rehabilitation occupations. Many careers in healthcare require a graduate degree, and Calvin University’s Pre-Professional program will provide the critical foundation for your career.

At Calvin you will become a movement expert, well-prepared to continue your graduate education and ultimately to improve patient quality of life.

Take a look at this webpage. Or find a t-shirt, book jacket, poster, or logo. Are your eyes drawn to it? Do the images, colors, and typography work together effectively? How can a simple font choice reinforce—or undermine—a message?

At Calvin, you’ll ask these kinds of questions in a small classroom setting, where your professors know you personally and give you individualized attention. You’ll work alongside classmates where you'll collaborate and learn from each other. You’ll learn why centuries-old typefaces are still relevant. You’ll draw connections between traditional letterpress materials and pixels on a screen.

You’ll do more than just make something look good. You’ll learn to solve design problems in the world, and that will open up a wide range of possibilities.

In this program, you'll understand great art by making it. You'll feel the heat of the kiln in a state-of-the-art ceramics studio. Watch people moved by a photograph you developed in the darkroom. Help organize an annual arts festival (with your own paintings on view).

Those experiences add up to much more than artistic skill. Yes, you’ll master painting, drawing, photography, or ceramics. You’ll get guidance from expert Christian faculty and encouragement from peers. But you'll also learn to think creatively, critique effectively, and communicate thoughtfully to any audience.

When you graduate, you'll have what you need to thrive in a wide range of careers: a wealth of experience, a rigorous education, and a supportive network of friends and fellow artists.
