At Cedarville since 1991. Preengineering Some students may wish to pursue engineering majors other than me– chanical or electrical. The preengineering curriculum is designed to satisfy the technical/nontechnical requirements of the first two years of a typical engineering program. It is expected that strict adherence to this program will result in acceptance at an accredited engineering school at the junior level, enabling the student to acquire an engineering degree with an addi– tional two years of study. Students should research the engineering schools to which they wish to transfer so that application materials can be completed in advance of dead– lines. Students who have not had at least algebra I, algebra II or trigonome– try in high school should not expect to complete the program in two years.
