Small School vs. Major Options?

<p>

</p>

<p>CMK does not list a general engineering program on its “Academics” page. They do offer 2 joint/dual degree 5-year programs, one in “Management-Engineering” and another in “Economics and Engineering”. The former is basically the same as the “3/2” programs offered by many other LACs; it requires a transfer after 3 years at CMK to complete another 2 years of engineering at another school. The latter offers 2 options; one is a 3/2 program with Harvey Mudd, the other a 3/2 program with another institution.</p>

<p>In either program, you are not dipping your toes into engineering at CMK to see if you like it enough to transfer. You’re doing 3 years of liberal arts at CMK, then 2 of engineering at another school. With the “Economics and Engineering” option, you do take several courses in science and engineering during the first 3 years, but you take the engineering courses at Mudd, not at CMK.</p>

<p>Pitzer does not have its own general engineering program. It may have a 3/2 option, as many LACs do.</p>
