Dual Degree Requirements
Dual Degree in Engineering
Duane H. Pontius Jr. and Douglas A. Riley, Advisors
Students who participate in the pre-engineering dual-degree program
attend Birmingham-Southern College for a portion of their degree and
then continue their education at an ABET accredited institution. After
completing the academic requirements at both schools, the student is
awarded a bachelor’s degree from Birmingham-Southern College and an
engineering degree from the cooperating institution.
The College maintains partnering arrangements with five schools for which
admittance into those engineering programs is guaranteed after completing
the Birmingham-Southern College pre-engineering requirements, upon
a favorable recommendation by the College’s faculty liaison, and sundry
additional requirements specific to either the partner or the engineering
discipline. The partnering institutions include Auburn University, Columbia
University, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Vanderbilt University,
and Washington University in St. Louis. Interested students are encouraged
to contact one of the pre-engineering advisors for specifics on requirements
for each school and engineering program.
