Pre-Engineering at Richmond
The University of Richmond offers opportunities for students to build a solid foundation in mathematics and science, as well as acquire skills in logical thinking and reasoning, communication, problem-solving and flexible thinking. With these skills, students can choose to apply to our 3-2 (or 4-2) dual-degree program with Columbia or pursue graduate education in engineering. The dual-degree program leads to a bachelor’s degree from Richmond in a field of your choosing as well as a bachelor's degree in Engineering from Columbia University. If the dual-degree program does not match your interest, another common route to an engineering career is to complete a B.S. degree at the University of Richmond and then attend graduate school for a master’s degree or doctorate in engineering. Our experience is that engineering graduate programs are excited to accept Richmond students with strong records in math and science.
