3-2 ENGINEERING PROGRAM: MAJOR IN MATHEMATICS
Under the 3-2 program, a student attends Carroll College for three years and then selects and transfers to one of the seven affiliated engineering schools for two years of study. Upon successful completion of the five-year program, the student receives a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in mathematics from Carroll College and a Bachelor of Science degree with a selected engineering major from the engineering school.
A student who completes the requirements for the 3-2 Engineering Major in Mathematics earns two degrees:
1. A Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in mathematics from Carroll College
2. A Bachelor of Science degree with a major in a selected filed of
engineering from one of the following affiliated engineering schools:
a. Columbia University, New York, NY
b. The University of Norte Dame, South Bend, IN
c. The University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA
d. The University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN
e. Gonzaga University, Spokane, WA
f. Montana Tech of the University of Montana, Butte, MT
g. Montana State University, Bozeman, MT
The purposes of the 3-2 program are to provide the student with a traditional engineering education augmented with a strong liberal arts background and to provide a broader and deeper exposure to mathematics and its applications than would ordinarily be possible in a four-year engineering program.
