Engineering and Business program during junior year

<p>During my campus day visit, I was informed about a program that allowed engineering students to take business classes through Ross. I heard it's a very limited class therefore you need a good GPA and etc. I will be going to UMICH this September as a freshman. Is there anything that I should do to help me land a spot in this program as a freshman? and how hard is it to get into this program? I forget the name of it, but its like dual major, but you don't get out with a dual major.... something like that...</p>

<p>Are you referring to the Engineering Global Leadership (EGL) Honor Program?
Michigan</a> Engineering | Honors Programs</p>

<p>"Engineering Global Leadership (EGL) Honors Program combines a traditional engineering undergraduate curriculum with a core of courses in the Ross School of Business and a cultural core in the College of Literature, Arts and Sciences. During the five-year program, EGL Honors students earn both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Engineering. Students can apply for EGL in the Fall of their sophomore or junior year. A minimum 3.60 cumulative GPA and a personal interview are required for admission. In addition to bachelor's and master's engineering degree requirements, EGL students take twelve credits of humanities/social sciences associated with their chosen cultural core region; two semesters of the same second-year foreign language (related to the cultural core region); twelve credits in the Ross School of Business; and a business and engineering internship prior to graduation..."</p>

<p>Oh, it's a 5 year program. Crap.</p>

<p>But you get your master's degree in engineering as well. You may be going for a MSE any way if you really want to work as an engineer.</p>

<p>yes thanks its the one I was referring to. I forgot what it was called. I didn't know LSA was involved. Thanks for the info. are there other programs similar to this or is this the only one where engineering and business school work together?</p>
