Program
Harness the power of the LIBERAL ARTS
.
Today’s successful engineers must exhibit superior technical skills and be able to effectively communicate their expertise in a global marketplace. Centenary’s 3/2 Engineering program is a dual degree program - students finish with a degree from Centenary as well as an engineering degree from one of our partner universities. This preparation provides students with a strong, broad base of knowledge as well as develops critical skills in areas such as analysis, reading, and technical writing. This liberal arts foundation also helps future engineers understand the potential social, cultural, and economic impact of their work.

Biochemistry Major
“Engineers need to be able to communicate their designs, products, and tests to others through presentations, meetings, papers, patents, research, and conversations. Centenary’s Chemistry Literature & Society class teaches chemistry students how to find, sort, study, and present chemistry scholarship. Classes like this as well as the other liberal arts requirements set Centenary students apart when they enter the professional engineering world.”
DEGREE INFO
Students enrolled in the 3/2 program pursue three years of concentrated studies in the liberal arts and engineering sciences at Centenary followed by two years of professional engineering courses at a cooperating university. Upon successful completion of all degree requirements, students typically earn a Bachelor of Science degree in their chosen major from Centenary and a Bachelor of Science degree in engineering from the cooperating university.
Students may also choose to complete a degree at Centenary and pursue either graduate engineering study or a second undergraduate degree in engineering. Some engineering affiliates offer BS/MS programs which typically can be completed in a total of six years.
Students interested in the dual degree program should consult the 3/2 coordinator as early as possible. For more details on degree options at Centenary and cooperating universities, visit centenary.edu/ engineering.
