Dual Degree Program

Students in this program study for three years at Covenant College before transferring to an approved engineering school. The dual degree program allows students to gain the benefits of the Christ- centered education offered by Covenant and the excellent scientific training available from a variety of universities and technical institutes. The program prepares students for study in the areas of civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical, and industrial engineering, along with their associated sub-disciplines. Please note that architecture is not an area of engineering and as such is not part of the dual degree program. While we have a preferred relation with the Georgia Institute of Technology, recent participants in the program have also attended a number of other universities such as Auburn University, North Carolina State University, Purdue University, and the University of Alabama - Huntsville. Choosing a target engineering institution and engineering major is not necessary until the third year of the dual degree program. If a target institution or major program is known, please communicate this preference to your advisor as it will help in selecting program specific curriculum requirements.

Because of the rigorous nature of this program, students are normally required to have an SAT score of at least 1100  (critical reading plus math only) and a minimum SAT math score of 600 or ACT math score of 25 prior to enrollment at Covenant. Admittance to or completion of the pre-engineering program at Covenant College does not automatically guarantee admission to an institution accredited to grant engineering degrees. Each student must meet the transfer student admission requirements of the accredited institution.
