EPIC is a specialized math and science path which will arm students to enter post-secondary education qualified for engineering majors, or other geotechnical, geological physical, meteorological, or environmental fields, as well as those interested in pursuing education majors in those areas. There will be a strong math and science component and interested students must commit to the required curriculum of additional math and science coursework as well as enrichment activities. However, all students may select electives from the EPIC menu of courses when those courses fulfill an individual need or career interest. Students making such menu selections should complete an application and indicate that they are seeking to qualify for an EPIC Major (full participation) or EPIC Minor (limited participation for non-engineering fields).
