ENGINEERING preparatory program The college offers an opportunity to begin an engineering program in a liberal arts setting. This bachelor’s degree program is completed in cooperation with a selected engineering school. Three possible tracks are available: (1) two or three years at Emory & Henry followed by two years at an engineering school, leading to an engineering degree; (2) four years at Emory & Henry followed by one or two years at an engineering school, leading to degrees from both institutions; or (3) for highly qualified students, a three-two program, leading to degrees from both institutions. Most recently, Emory & Henry students have continued their study of engineering at Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, Georgia Institute of Technology, and Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. Although this program is oriented primarily to students in the physical sciences, a combined degree program in certain fields is available to students from the life sciences, behavioral sciences, and humanities. The basic engineering program listed below is intended to prepare a student for any of the engineering fields. In the first year of study, most engineering schools require two semesters each of English, calculus, physics, and chemistry, and one semester of computer programming. Calculus through differential equations and economics are usually required by the end of the second year. All of these courses may be taken at Emory & Henry and transferred to an engineering school. BASIC ENGINEERING The basic engineering curriculum provides the fundamental coursework for the fields of chemical, civil, electrical, electronic, or mechanical engineering. Required courses include the following: Chemistry 111 and 112; Physics 201, 202, 311, and either 321 or 361. The mathematics requirement is met by Mathematics 151, 152, 253, 353, and one of the following: 321, 453, or 455. Additional coursework must include Economics 151 and the general requirements. Students interested in pursuing biomedical engineering should take four additional courses in biology and/or chemistry.
