Pre-Engineering Studies

Ογ½ΆΠγ University is proud to partner with Washington University in St. Louis to offer this β€œ3+2” dual-degree program. Students will complete three years of a liberal arts foundation along with rigorous science and math courses at Ογ½ΆΠγ University.

Qualified students can then transfer to Washington University in St. Louis to complete two years of engineering coursework. These students will earn two undergraduate degrees: a B.S. in Pre-Engineering Studies degree from Ογ½ΆΠγ and a B.S. in Engineering from Washington University in St. Louis.

Admission Requirements

In order to be admitted unconditionally into Ογ½ΆΠγ’s program, students must have:

  • ACT Science and Math scores of at least 27 (or SAT Math score of 640), or
  • demonstrated proficiency in high school calculus.

Transfer Requirements

In order to qualify to transfer to Washington University in St. Louis, students must:

  • be able to transfer at least 90 credit hours,
  • earn a minimum GPA of 3.25 overall and 3.25 in math and science courses, and
  • be recommended by Ογ½ΆΠγ’s Pre-Engineering program liaison.

All pre-engineering studies majors complete the following 39 credit hours of core coursework:
