Why study engineering at Â鶹´«Ã½ÍŶÓ?

Cooperative engineering allows students to combine studies in liberal arts and sciences with professional preparation in engineering. Students spend three years at Â鶹´«Ã½ÍÅ¶Ó majoring in either chemistry or physics, then transfer to a partnering engineering school for a final two years of study, earning degrees from both institutions.

Cooperative programs offer a number of advantages. Most engineering schools have large classes and focus primarily on their graduate students. At Â鶹´«Ã½ÍŶÓ, the largest technical classes have about 70 students, and professors focus solely on undergraduates, both for coursework and for opportunities to participate in faculty-sponsored research—a rarity for undergraduates at larger institutions.
