ACCREDITATION

Four-year undergraduate curricula leading to the degree of bachelor of science are offered in the fields of aerospace engineering, environmental engineering (joint degree with SEBS), biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical and computer engineering, industrial engineering, materials science and engineering, and mechanical engineering. These curricula are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. In addition, a flexible four-year curriculum in applied sciences in engineering is administered by an interdepartmental committee. The field of applied sciences in engineering is not a professional engineering curriculum and is not subject to ABET accreditation.

Numerous areas of concentration are available within these disciplines, such as biochemical engineering, financial engineering, communications, computer engineering, pharmaceutical engineering, energy systems, and packaging engineering. Five-year, dual-degree programs are offered by the School of Engineering in cooperation with the School of Arts and Sciences. This program leads to a bachelor of science (B.S.) degree in any of the engineering fields listed above, and a bachelor of arts (B.A.) or a B.S. degree from the School of Arts and Sciences in any of its majors.

Finally, the School of Engineering welcomes transfer students to our community of learning and engagement. If you've attended a college or university after graduating from high school, you are considered as a transfer student. Each year, the school admits transfer students from other schools within Rutgers as well as colleges/universities in the United States and around the world. Please keep in mind that the School of Engineering is a full-time day program. You are expected to be a full-time student. Only if there are extenuating circumstances may our students request to be part-time students.
