The College of Professional Studies and the College of Arts and Sciences offer a two-year pre-engineering program to students who intend to pursue a career in engineering. Designed for students who wish to transfer to a traditional engineering school, this two-year curriculum includes technical, humanities, and liberal arts courses. Pre-engineering students are enrolled in the Department of Industrial and Engineering Technologies or College of Arts and Sciences and are advised by appropriate faculty. These faculty are also available to help you decide which particular branch of engineering you might wish to pursue.

While this curriculum is designed to meet the general needs of many traditional engineering institutions, you should verify any specific needs of the school and discipline of your choice.  In addition, most of this coursework will satisfy scholastic requirements if you wish to pursue a degree in engineering technology or natural science, concentrating in physics, through Shawnee State University.  Students completing this curriculum are strongly recommended to apply for the Associate of Science (A.S.) degree to facilitate transfer to an engineering program at a 4-year institution.
