Five-Year B.S./B.S. Program with School of Environmental and Biological Sciences

The five-year, dual-degree program in bioenvironmental engineering is offered by the School of Engineering in cooperation with the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences (SEBS). This program allows a greater depth of specialization at the undergraduate level than can be achieved by completing the four-year program.

Students in the five-year program apply to SEBS, under whose jurisdiction they remain for the first two years. Assuming satisfactory progress, the students come under the academic jurisdiction of the School of Engineering for the remaining three years of the program. However, the students continue to affiliate with SEBS and must select humanities/social sciences electives to satisfy SEBS core requirements. Four-year bioenvironmental engineering majors may apply to SEBS for transfer to the dual-degree, five-year program at any time prior to their fourth year.

First year students matriculating fall 2015 and after and transfer students matriculating fall 2016 and after can find the SEBS core requirements in the SEBS Core Requirements chapter. The most recent updates will be posted on the SEBS and the Bioenvironmental Engineering program websites.

Continuing students matriculating prior to fall 2015 and transfer students matriculating prior to fall 2016 must complete the SEBS core requirements Areas I through VII plus the major requirements Area VIII A and B. The SEBS core for continuing students matriculating prior to fall 2015 and transfer students matriculating prior to fall 2016 fulfills the School of Engineering humanities and social science requirements. The year-by-year program for continuing students matriculating prior to fall 2015 and transfer students matriculating prior to fall 2016 is listed below.
