2012-2013 Undergraduate Catalog

Engineering Science: 3-2 Engineering

Students in the 3-2 Engineering program will spend three years at Cumberland University and two years attending an accredited engineering partner school. The five year program leads to a Bachelor of Science degree from Cumberland University, and a degree in engineering from the engineering school of choice. This liberal arts-engineering combination provides students a generous background in science, humanities, and social sciences. The program will appeal to those who desire a broader background in humanities and social sciences before starting the more restricted technical studies of engineering. It is highly recommended that an entering freshman choosing this major have credit for or place out of (via a Math ACT score > 28) College Algebra (MATH 111), so that the student can start Calculus I (MATH 121) in the fall of the freshman year. A grade of "C" or higher is required in Engineering core and elective courses. The specific course requirements are listed below.
