B.S./B.E. Combined Degree Program

The Engineering and Physical Science Dual Degree Program is a five-year curriculum offered jointly by St. John’s University and Manhattan College. The first three years of pre-engineering studies are taken at St. John’s University. Students attaining a minimum quality point index of 2.5 and other requirements are then admitted to Manhattan College for the last two years of engineering studies in any of the undergraduate curricula. Both a B.S. degree from St. John’s and a B.E. degree from Manhattan College are awarded when the student successfully completes the program.

During their first three years candidates complete general requirements for a Bachelor of Science degree and the following: PHY1930, 1940, 1950, 1970, 2110, 2150, 3510,3221; CSC 1010 or 1390, MTH 1730, 1740, 2750 and 3840. A few additional courses (usually two or three) will be specified by the Physics Department in accordance with the student’s preparation and chosen engineering discipline. It may be necessary for students to take summer courses to complete the program in five years.

To assure an orderly sequence of studies students must have the approval of the Physics Department for each semester ’s courses. Some modifications of the requirements can be accepted when approved by the Physics Department and by Manhattan College.
