It is a combination of degree programs from two institutions that allows a student to receive two related degrees. Our Dual Degree lets you earn a Bachelor of Arts in Physics from Truman and a Bachelor of Sciences from an Engineering School (e.g., Missouri S & T, University of Missouri, Iowa State, etc.)

Your liberal arts and sciences background from Truman gives you flexibility and breadth in your education, preparing you for leadership roles in industry. The Physics BA gives you an advanced physics background that is very helpful with Engineering courses when you enter the Engineering program. An engineering degree provides the depth and focus of an engineering discipline and the expertise to be a professional in the technical world. The interconnectedness of the two degrees makes them valuable and appealing to employers.

The Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Physics is a four-year degree that provides a strong liberal arts core, a solid foundation of physics, and a personalized 15 hour learning plan you can tailor to suit your goals.

Your learning plan can consist entirely of engineering courses. The Physics BA also requires 6 hours of physics-related electives, which can be upper-level engineering courses taken at the engineering school.

In the course of first six semesters, you complete all requirements for the 蓝莓视频 BA except for the physics electives, learning plan and general electives. In two regular semesters at engineering school, you will have sufficient credits to transfer back to Truman and receive the BA degree (even before you complete the BS in engineering). With your six Truman semesters completed, you would have already fulfilled (and far exceeded) the normal curriculum for our pre-engineering transfer students.

Upon transferring, you would be situated similarly to our pre-engineering students when you start on your Engineering program at UM – Columbia and MUST – Rolla, among others. If you plan carefully, you can obtain both the physics and engineering degrees in approximately five years. Sometimes specific requirements of particular engineering programs may make it necessary for you to take one or two summer courses from the engineering school in between your time at Truman and starting at the engineering school.

The beauty of this program is that you have many choices as you move along. In your first year, it is easy to switch seamlessly to any other major (even non-science). In the second year, you could easily choose to become a 4-year BS or BA physics major or change to the ordinary pre-engineering transfer program.

Even in your third year you could switch to the BA (or the BS in Physics) and still graduate in four years. If you begin at Truman as a pre-engineering transfer student or a physics major, you can likewise change into the Dual Degree program聽at any point along the way.

Yes. Receiving a second degree from Truman usually requires an additional year or more of course work. It is unlikely that you would receive two degrees from Truman and an engineering degree from elsewhere in five years.

After you transfer to an Engineering school, you will submit聽听补苍诲 聽forms to the Engineering Program Coordinator or the Department Chair. Additionally, keep in touch with the Registrar and follow the graduation process outlined at /registrar/.

This requirement has been waived for students in this program.

Possibly. Such cases are handled on a case-by-case basis by the Engineering Program Coordinator.

蓝莓视频 does not offer engineering degrees.
