An Engineering Degree + Full College Experience

At Baker University you can study engineering on our small, tight-knit, and supportive campus and take advantage of the full college experience. Want to sing in the choir, host a radio show, or continue your athletic career in college? You can!

Seth is in the dual-degree program with the University of North Dakota. He is majoring in physics and is enrolled in the civil engineering program at UND. He is also a member of the Wildcat football team.

“I looked up the UND engineering school, and they had a great program. Dr. Perry laid out the entire class plan for me and that gave me this sense of security that Baker was getting me to the right place.”

“It’s also nice that I get two degrees: my physics degree with a math minor and then a civil engineering degree at UND. Even though I’m not at UND in person, I am still able to establish a relationship with my professors through communicating with them, and they have an advisor who is very helpful.”

“I chose Baker because I wanted to play football, and I like the small campus. I knew I wanted to do engineering, and with the bonus of being able to play football, the choice was easy. Being at Baker, getting the opportunity to do two things that I love is what set Baker apart. Baker’s strong physics department also influenced my decision as I believe what I learn in my physics classes here will translate well to engineering.”

3+2 and 3+3 Dual-Degree Programs with Washington University in St. Louis

As a student in our 3+2 or 3+3 pre-engineering program you’ll receive one-on-one attention from your professors during your first three years at Baker before moving on to Washington University in St. Louis (WashU).

3+2 Dual-Degree Program

This pre-engineering program involves three years of study at Baker followed by two years at the School of Engineering at WashU. Students typically major in physics, chemistry, mathematics, or computer science at Baker. They complete their academic major and general education requirements and prerequisite coursework required for admission to the School of Engineering at WashU. Typically, at the end their third year, these students transfer to WashU and major in biomedical, chemical, computer, electrical, environmental, mechanical, or system science engineering. At the conclusion of their studies, students will have completed a liberal arts degree from Baker University and an engineering degree from Washington University.

3+3 Bachelor’s to Master’s Dual-Degree Program

Motivated pre-engineering students can apply for admission directly into an engineering master’s program at WashU. In addition to earning an undergraduate degree from Baker University, students will also earn both a master’s and an undergraduate degree in engineering and are classified as graduate students for all three years at WashU.
