3+2 Engineering Dual-Degree Program
Our 3+2 dual-degree engineering program allows students to begin their studies at SMWC, and after three years, qualified students will be granted admission to Marian University for two years, where they can enroll in engineering. During their five years of study, students will earn both a degree in mathematics from SMWC and a degree in engineering from Marian University.
How does 3+2 work?
Our dual-degree program in engineering provides students a comprehensive education and a unique opportunity to engage with two different campus communities, doubling the number of real-world connection opportunities. After attending classes for three years at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College, you can then enroll in your choice of program at Marian University’s E. S. Witchger School of Engineering:
- Civil engineering
- Mechanical engineering
- Biomedical engineering
- Chemical engineering
After completing the program, students will earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics from SMWC and a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering from Marian University.
This program gives students access to a state-of-the-art engineering center, cutting-edge labs, high-tech classrooms and collaborative learning spaces. It also ensures a smooth transition between the two institutions, which both share a strong emphasis on liberal arts traditions.
