Ã山ǿ¼é

Where Imagination Meets Science

Many students come to Ã山ǿ¼é who are interested in engineering. We provide several avenues for these students that combine a rigorous education in a student-focused, liberal arts setting with the opportunity to finish their degrees at a top-rated engineering school. Ã山ǿ¼é faculty in physics, mathematics, and computer science advise students in these programs to ensure they complete, in the proper sequence, all of the Ã山ǿ¼é courses required for admission by these universities.

Dual-Degree Program in Engineering with Columbia University’s Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science

Ã山ǿ¼é is a liberal arts affiliate of the Columbia University Combined Plan in Engineering. In this program, students complete three or four years at Ã山ǿ¼é College and then two years at The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science at Columbia University in New York. Students from Ã山ǿ¼é receive priority in admissions review at Columbia University, provided they meet Columbia’s admission requirements. Upon completion of the program, students earn a B.S. degree in their major at Ã山ǿ¼é and a B.S. degree from Columbia in one of the engineering disciplines.

Dual-Degree Program in Engineering with Ã山ǿ¼é University's McKelvey School of Engineering

Ã山ǿ¼é is a liberal arts affiliate institution for Ã山ǿ¼é University's engineering dual-degree program. This program has three pathways open to students. Summaries of these pathways are below, but full details can be found here:

• Undergraduate Dual Degree Program - In this program, students complete three or four years at Ã山ǿ¼é and then two years at The McKelvey School of Engineering. Students from Ã山ǿ¼é are guaranteed admission to Ã山ǿ¼é University, provided they meet WashU’s admission requirements. Upon completion of the program, students earn a B.S. degree in their major at Ã山ǿ¼é College and a B.S. degree from Ã山ǿ¼é University in one of the engineering disciplines.
• Undergraduate + Graduate Triple Degrees (3-year option) -  After completing three years at an affiliated school, students enroll directly into both an engineering master's program and an undergraduate engineering program at WashU. In addition to their Ã山ǿ¼é B.S. degree, students earn both B.S. and master's engineering degrees from WashU and are classified as graduate students for all three years while there. Students from Ã山ǿ¼é are guaranteed admission to Ã山ǿ¼é University, provided they meet WashU’s admission requirements. 
• Direct Admission Into a Master's Program (Not Dual Degree) - After completing a non-engineering undergraduate degree from an affiliated school, qualified students may enroll directly into an engineering master's program at WashU (no undergraduate engineering degree is earned). For more information about applying directly to a graduate program, please visit  or email [email protected]. 

A Ã山ǿ¼é degree can lead to graduate studies in Engineering

While the dual-degree partnerships with Columbia and Ã山ǿ¼é Universities are popular with students, some pre-engineering students elect to complete their four years at Ã山ǿ¼é and apply competitively to engineering M.S. and Ph.D. programs, including Columbia University, Ã山ǿ¼é University, and other nationally-ranked engineering graduate schools. Additionally, science degrees from Ã山ǿ¼é alone may provide you with the necessary background to pursue engineering-related careers. Ã山ǿ¼é faculty are here to guide you through your education as you work toward your ultimate goals.
