The
3-2 Engineering Degree Program is a dual-degree option offered in
conjunction with universities that provide baccalaureate study in
engineering. Under the 3-2 plan a student spends three years at
Schreiner and two years at a senior engineering university to earn
two degrees—the Bachelor of General Studies from Schreiner
and a bachelor's degree in an engineering specialty from the engineering
institution.
Thirty upper-division hours are transferred back to Schreiner for
the BGS degree. Coursework at Schreiner provides general background
for a variety of majors in engineering and engineering technology. The
3-2 program is designed for students who wish to have a well-rounded
background in the liberal arts, as well as professional preparation
in engineering. During the third year at Schreiner University, students complete
requirements in interdisciplinary studies, English, mathematics,
sciences, social sciences, humanities and information systems. The
expected time to complete both baccalaureate degrees in the 3-2
program is five years based on a course load of 16-17 credit hours
per semester. A student may choose to spend more time (or less)
at either Schreiner or the engineering university.
