The Engineering Dual Degree program at Maryville College offers a unique pathway for students interested in engineering careers. This program combines a strong liberal arts education with the foundational technical knowledge required for advanced engineering studies. For the first three years, students will focus on mathematics, chemistry, physics, and computer science at Maryville College, developing essential analytical and problem-solving skills. Simultaneously, they will cultivate critical liberal arts competencies such as written and oral communication, interpersonal skills, and the ability to understand complex issues in a broader context. This blend of technical and communication skills makes Maryville College graduates highly competitive. Upon successful completion of the initial three years at Maryville College, students transfer to an accredited engineering school to complete their Bachelor of Science degree. While Maryville College has a transfer agreement with the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, students have the flexibility to pursue admission to any accredited engineering program. The program culminates in a Bachelor of Arts degree from Maryville College and a Bachelor of Science degree from the partner engineering institution.
Curriculum
The program structure involves three years at Maryville College, focusing on foundational science, math, and computer science, followed by a transfer to an engineering school for the final years of study. Key courses at Maryville College include calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, general physics, general chemistry, and introduction to computer science. Students also complete the Maryville Curriculum, a 51-credit hour general education program.
