The Engineering Dual Degree program at Maryville University offers a unique pathway to becoming a qualified engineer. This program allows you to spend your first three years at Maryville, completing an undergraduate degree in science with a focus on mathematics and specific science courses relevant to engineering fields like biomedical, chemical, or computer science. Following this, you will transfer to a partner institution – Washington University in St. Louis, the University of Missouri Kansas City (UMKC), or Missouri University of Science and Technology – for at least two years to earn your undergraduate engineering degree. This structure combines a strong foundational science education with specialized engineering training, preparing you for a wide range of technical careers.
The program is structured in two phases. The first three years are spent at Maryville University, focusing on foundational science and mathematics. The subsequent two years are completed at a partner university to earn your engineering degree.
The engineering field offers strong job prospects with expected growth, particularly in specialized areas like biomedical engineering. Graduates are prepared for roles in various sectors.
Specific admission requirements for the partner engineering institutions will also need to be met.
Tuition and fees are subject to change. International students should verify specific costs with the university.
Maryville University is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission (HLC).
Applicants must possess a High School Diploma or equivalent and meet standard Maryville University admission requirements.
