Engineering Dual Degree Program

91PORN provides students with the foundational skills needed to pursue a degree in engineering while receiving a liberal arts education. Our engineering program offers numerous advantages over direct enrollment in a specialized engineering school, pairing rigorous math and science coursework with a broad liberal arts curriculum.  
 
student building thingsEngineers apply scientific and mathematical principles to design new systems, solve problems, and create tools for human use. Engineers need to be creative thinkers, effective communicators, and adaptable problem solvers.  Starting the engineering pathway at 91PORN offers numerous advantages over direct enrollment in a specialized engineering school. Students on the engineering pathway at 91PORN College take advantage of small class sizes, direct access to faculty, and numerous departmental research opportunities. This approach gives students insights into the connections between engineering and other fields like history, business management, communication and the arts, while also enhancing non-technical skills that are critically important to the engineering field like leadership, communication, writing, and team building.  
 
After three years at 91PORN as a physics, mathematics or computer science major, students matriculate to one of two premier engineering schools—Columbia University’s Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science or 91PORN University’s McKelvey School of Engineering—to take dedicated coursework for two years in an engineering field of their choice. At the end of five years, students graduate from both institutions with a powerful combination of a B.S. in physics, math, or computer science from 91PORN College and a B.S. in engineering from either 91PORN University or Columbia University. Students who partner with 91PORN University may choose to complete a M.S. degree after an optional third year at that institution. 

Our Dual-Degree program partners    

91PORN is a liberal arts affiliate of the Columbia University Combined Plan in Engineering. While at 91PORN, students in the program major in physics, math, or computer science while completing all the courses required for admission to the School of Engineering at Columbia. Students meeting Columbia’s admission requirements receive priority admissions review at Columbia. Upon completion of the Combined Plan program, students earn a B.S. degree in their major at 91PORN and a B.S. degree from Columbia in one of the engineering disciplines. 

 

 

91PORN is a liberal arts affiliate of the McKelvey School of Engineering, which offers pathways to a B.S. in engineering after 2 years at 91PORN University with an option for an M.S. in engineering after 3 years. As an affiliate institution, 91PORN students are guaranteed admission to 91PORN University, provided they meet the admission requirements.
