NATURAL SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS MAJOR WITH PRE-ENGINEERING CONCENTRATION

Students may choose the dual degree option under the existing collaborative programs with the Colleges of Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Marquette University. Under this option, in addition to receiving a Bachelor’s degree in engineering from one of these institutions, a student will receive a B.S. in Natural Science and Mathematics from Edgewood College subject to the completion of the degree requirements stipulated by the college.

Sixty-seven credits to include the following core courses:
  • CHEM 120F5 General Chemistry I (4 cr)
  • CHEM 121F5 General Chemistry II (4 cr)
  • MATH 231 Calculus I (4 cr)
  • MATH 232 Calculus II (4 cr)
  • MATH 233 Calculus III (4 cr)
  • MATH 331 Differential Equations (3 cr)
  • PHYS 201F5 College Physics I (4 cr)
  • PHYS 202F5 College Physics II (4 cr)
  • PHYS 350 Scientific Computing (3 cr)
  • PHYS 360 Modern Physics (3 cr)

Under the agreements with the Colleges of Engineering at the UW-Madison and Marquette University, students who complete the Edgewood College pre-engineering concentration with a minimum GPA of 3.0; have a 3.0 GPA in mathematics, chemistry, physics and computer science courses; have the General Education courses equivalent to the liberal arts electives required by the specific degree-granting department of the student’s choice in the College of Engineering; and have a positive recommendation from the Edgewood physical sciences or mathematics faculty, will be assured entrance into that specific degree-granting department.

The course credits earned by students upon completion of their engineering program at UW-Madison or Marquette University may be transferred to Edgewood College to complete the B.S. in Natural Science and Mathematics.

The computer competency requirement will be met through completion of the major’s core courses. The Edgewood College Foundations of Communications, Foundations of Human Learning, and Human Issues requirements must also be completed to receive the dual degree.
