Abstract
The goal of the Academy curriculum is to develop well-rounded officers who can meet the unique challenges of the profession of arms. Under the direction of Col Gregory Seely, the department’s 25 faculty members (approximately 75% military and 25% civilian) lead the cadets through a rigorous curriculum. In 2007, the department will proudly graduate 44 civil and eight environmental engineering majors. Twenty-eight of these graduates, along with three mechanical engineering majors, will enter the Air Force civil engineer career field (see graph). Though a majority of our program graduates attend pilot training or become civil engineers, a few pursue other engineering career fields or cross-commission into our sister military services.
