The Dual-Degree Program 3 (or 4) years at Gettysburg Gettysburg College liberal arts curriculum Major in some discipline at Gettysburg pre-engineering courses 2 years at engineering school You enter as a junior engineering major and take only engineering courses toward that major. Courses transfer both directions so you complete TWO degrees, one at each school. You receive both degrees at the end of the program.
The Schools University of Washington at St. Louis (St. Louis, MO) Columbia University (New York, NY) University of Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh, PA) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (Troy, NY) All accept 4-2 as well as 3-2. WashU has 4-3 (and even 3-3) leading to second BS and MS. Columbia has 4-2 Masters without the second BS.
