<p>I'm interested in a BME major and unfortunately, Princeton doesn't offer anything close to that. Is it possible to apply as a BA major and transfer (potentially) in the future into their engineering school? </p>
<p>For example, JHU will not let a current student transfer into its BME program.</p>
<p>Engineering has more prerequisites than most BA majors. You can start majoring in biology and transfer to engineering if you have taken freshman physics, chemistry, and calculus or have advanced placement in those subjects. Transferring majors is easy if you have the prerequisites. </p>
<p>If you are interested in BME review the courses in Chemical and Biological Engineering [Chemical</a> and Biological Engineering](<a href=“http://www.princeton.edu/cbe/]Chemical”>Chemical and Biological Engineering) and Engineering Biology [Princeton</a> University – Engineering Biology – Home](<a href=“http://www.princeton.edu/engbio/]Princeton”>Program in Engineering Biology) . Review the research and the courses taught by Professor Celeste M. Nelson [Nelson</a> -*Chemical and Biological Engineering](<a href=“http://www.princeton.edu/cbe/people/faculty/nelson/]Nelson”>Celeste M. Nelson | Chemical and Biological Engineering) . About a third of the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering faculty focus a significant portion of their research on questions related to biology. The university plans to add more engineering faculty in the life sciences. Bioengineering and biotechnology are the two most popular tracks within the department. There is more biological engineering research at Princeton than you might had believed.</p>
<p>apply as an engineer, it’ll work out better for you…they actually have a department called “chemical and biological engineering” or you could do mechanical engineering with some BME classes</p>
