Pre-Engineering Track

Program Eligibility

Pre-Engineering is an academic pathway for qualified students who initially applied for direct admission to the College of Engineering and were alternatively offered admission to the College of Arts and Sciences as an Undeclared Pre-Engineering student. The Pre-Engineering track provides a supportive and structured way for students to transition into the College of Engineering. Pre-Engineering students begin in the College of Arts and Sciences and work toward fulfilling the necessary requirements to enter a program in the College of Engineering. 

Program Requirements

Pre-Engineering students need to meet program-specific requirements to enter the major of their choice.

If all the requirements for entrance to the program are met prior to the completion of their third semester, students are eligible to declare a major within the College of Engineering by submitting the Undergraduate Major Minor Concentration Change Form. 

If the requirements are not met, the student will have to declare a major outside of Engineering.
