Plan of Study
Students interested in engineering have a variety of pathways of study they may pursue during their time at Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø and beyond.
While we offer guidelines, we recommend connecting with our engineering advisor, Prof. John Yukich, as well as engineering schools of interest before planning your study at Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø.
Students who pursue the dual degree program can attend Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø for either three or four years and, if accepted, attend the engineering school for the last two years. Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø partners with Washington University and Columbia University, and information on each can be found below. Students who have completed the science and math prerequisites and achieved the requisite GPA are guaranteed admission to Washington University. Admission is not guaranteed to Columbia Engineering.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø academic departments, in consultation with the engineering advisor, will count some engineering courses toward senior year department course requirements. Upon successful completion of the prescribed courses in the dual degree program, you will receive bachelor's degrees from both Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø and the engineering school.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø Degree Requirements
To receive a Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø degree under the cooperative dual degree plan you must:
- Satisfy all Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø graduation requirements.
- Choose a Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø major and complete a course of study for that major.
- Demonstrate proficiency in the requirements for graduation.
- Graduate from one of the cooperating schools in an approved engineering curriculum.
The following links provide more specific information on the programs at Columbia University and Washington University.
Students may apply to one or both schools. Admission to Washington University in St. Louis is guaranteed for those students who meet the minimum requirements, but admission to Columbia University is not guaranteed.
