Applied Physics—Pre-Engineering (Two-Year Program for Transfer)
Completion of this program prepares a student to pursue a baccalaureate degree in engineering. After completion of the required course sequence, students may transfer to a Bachelor of Science program in engineering. The two-year pre-engineering program was designed to articulate with the engineering programs at New Jersey Institute of Technology, but can be adapted to meet the transfer requirements of other engineering programs. Interested students should consult the engineering curricula at the institutions to which they intend to transfer.
The requirements for admission to this degree track are a minimum CGPA of 2.5 and MATH 175. Students interested in this track are encouraged to make their selection of major as soon as possible.
