Bethel students can pursue engineering studies as a part of the dual-degree program (transferring from Bethel upon completion of the basic pre-engineering track) or after graduation. Common majors for pre-engineering students at Bethel are chemistry and mathematics.
As a dual-degree student, you will complete all or most of your Bethel General Education requirements and most of your major requirements in three years and then transfer to any accredited engineering school. When you complete all Bethel requirements (by transferring hours to Bethel from the engineering school) and all engineering school requirements, you receive two baccalaureate degrees, one from each institution.
All pre-engineering students should be in close contact with the pre-engineering advisor. In order to ensure a smooth transfer to an engineering school, pre-engineering students should become familiar with the targeted engineering program as soon as possible.
Engineering is a rapidly changing profession. The liberal arts education you will receive at Bethel will give you a good foundation in communication skills and basic science to help you negotiate the changes you’ll encounter as an engineer throughout your career.
