3-2 Dual Degree Program Requirements
Pre-engineering students attend Carthage for three years and, upon successful completion of the required courses listed below, are admitted to a partnering engineering school for completion of the final two years of the five-year program.
While at Carthage, engineering students must major in one of the physical sciences, mathematics, or computer science.
Required courses:
- Chemistry 101: General Chemistry I
- Chemistry 102: General Chemistry II
- Computer Science 111: Principles of Computer Science I
- Mathematics 112: Calculus I
- Mathematics 113: Calculus II
- Mathematics 222: Differential Equations
- Physics 203: Intermediate Physics I
- Physics 204: Intermediate Physics II
- Physics 310: Mathematical Methods for Scientists & Engineers OR Mathematics 212: Multivariate Calculus
GPA Conditions:
Acceptance into the College of Engineering at UW-Madison is contingent on both a three-year Carthage GPA of at least 3.0 and a 3.0 GPA in the above required courses.
Acceptance into the Institute of Technology at Minnesota is contingent on a minimum GPA in the above required courses that, while varying with each engineering sub-field, is at least a 2.8.
A second program enables Carthage students to receive a Master of Engineering degree from the University of Minnesota, in addition to the B.A. degree from Carthage College, following four years at Carthage and typically two years at the Institute of Technology. Admission is not assured.
Scholarships
Scholarship students in the dual-degree program are encouraged to apply to the engineering schools for continuing scholarship support. Contact Professor Jean Quashnock, Coordinator of the Carthage Dual Degree Program in Engineering, for more information.
