DUAL DEGREE ENGINEERING PROGRAM<br />
<strong>LaGrange</strong> <strong>College</strong> has an engineering preparation program designed to provide a broad liberal<br />
arts background while preparing the student for a professional engineering program. Dual<br />
Degree Engineering Programs have been established with Georgia Institute of Technology and<br />
Auburn University. Students accepted in the Dual Degree program will attend <strong>LaGrange</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
for approximately three (3) years (90 semester hours if entering under this Bulletin) while they<br />
complete the Core Curriculum and the engineering preparatory courses listed at the end of this<br />
section. After satisfactorily completing these studies at <strong>LaGrange</strong> <strong>College</strong>, the student will then<br />
attend the engineering institution and complete a major in engineering, a process that generally<br />
takes two to three (2 to 3) additional years. After completion of the degree requirements for both<br />
institutions, the student will receive an engineering degree in the selected engineering discipline<br />
from the engineering institution and a Bachelor of Arts degree from <strong>LaGrange</strong> <strong>College</strong>.<br />
All students considering the Dual Degree Engineering Program should contact the program<br />
adviser, Dr. Terry Austin, prior to registration. Students must complete all components of the<br />
Core Curriculum, including the <strong>College</strong>‘s exit assessment exam before transferring to the<br />
engineering institution.<br />
Dual Degree Engineering students must satisfactorily complete all of the following courses<br />
before attending the engineering institution:<br />
Calculus I, II and III<br />
Differential Equations<br />
Linear Algebra (GA Tech.)<br />
