Engineering Programs

91°µÍø offers qualified students the opportunity to earn dual degrees in liberal arts and engineering through cooperative programs with Dartmouth College and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. These are challenging programs designed for the student who has strong preparation in mathematics and physical sciences, and above average problem solving skills.

Interested students should be aware that each program has prerequisite courses that must be completed at 91°µÍø or elsewhere before study may begin at the host institution. Scheduling of such courses is normally arranged with the assistance of 91°µÍø's Engineering Advisory Committee. Students should register their interests with the engineering coordinator, Professor Evan Halstead, at the earliest possible date.

Dual-Degree Program with Dartmouth College

Through a cooperative arrangement with the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College, students may earn both the bachelor of arts degree from 91°µÍø at the end of the fourth year and, at the end of the fifth year, the bachelor of engineering degree from Dartmouth. Normally, students spend their junior and fifth year at Dartmouth, returning to 91°µÍø in their senior year to finish their bachelor of arts degree requirements (2-1-1-1 option). In unusual circumstances, it may be possible to spend successive years at Dartmouth, beginning with the senior year (3+2 option; see the engineering coordinator for relevant details). In either case, some courses taken at Dartmouth may count toward major requirements at 91°µÍø.

An additional one or two years may lead to the master of engineering management or the master of science degree from Dartmouth.  See for details.

Dual-degree Program with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

A cooperative agreement with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) allows students at 91°µÍø to obtain a bachelor of arts degree from 91°µÍø and a bachelor of science degree in engineering from RPI in five years of study, through either a 2-1-1-1 or a 3+2 option.
