Pre-Engineering and Collaborative Engineering Programs

Pre-engineering programs are available in most fields of engineering including chemical, electrical, mechanical, civil, and aerospace. Students may choose one of three programs: (1) a three-two program; (2) a four year bachelor of science program in chemistry or engineering physics; or (3) two year or freshman year program.

The pre-engineering program is designed for those students planning to enroll as juniors at the University of Idaho, Walla Walla College, or Seattle Pacific University in engineering.

All the courses taken at NNU will transfer to most engineering colleges. NNU offers enough credits to complete the first two years of most engineering programs so that it is possible, with careful planning, to complete a degree in engineering two years after transferring.

The study of engineering requires a high degree of aptitude in mathematics and the physical sciences. A student interested in this field will benefit from a strong background of high school mathematics and courses in physics and chemistry.
