3-2 Engineering program

<p>Basically the 3-2 program boils down to this, though:</p>

<p>You pick a major, usually physics or math.</p>

<p>You MUST complete ALL of the requirements for both your major and your gen eds in the three years that you’re at Georgetown (which is no small feat, believe me.)</p>

<p>You must also look at the site above and complete the pre-engineering requirements (many of which overlap with a physics major), in addition to the requirements for your desired engineering specialization. <a href=“If%20you%20want%20to%20do%20BME,%20computer,%20or%20electrical%20engineering,%20a%20few%20classes%20required%20aren’t%20offered%20at%20GTown,%20and%20would%20need%20to%20be%20completed%20at%20Columbia%20before%20you%20matriculate,%20or%20at%20another%20college%20over%20the%20summer.%20This%20isn’t%20really%20a%20big%20deal,%20though.”>I</a>*</p>

<p>You must maintain a 3.3+ GPA, with nothing below a B in your pre-engin. classes. </p>

<p>You must get 3 good letters of recommendation from your dean and science/math faculty members.</p>

<p>If you can do all of this, you’ll be guaranteed admission to Columbia, and will, after you 5 years, receive bachelors degrees from both universities. It’s an awesome program (one that I considered for a while), but completing all of those classes on time is tougher that it’d seem. You’ll probably have to take a summer class or two if you’re interested in broadening your horizons with non-gen. ed. and non-science/math courses!</p>

<p>If you have any more questions, or need some clarification, just let me know!</p>
