3-2 Engineering

3-2 Engineering

Students preparing for the STEM Jam This is a five-year program of which the first three years are spent at Hawai‘i Pacific University. The final two years are spent at either The University of Southern California School of Engineering in Los Angeles, California, or Washington University School of Engineering and Applied Science in St. Louis, Missouri, where the student earns an ABET accredited Engineering Bachelor of Science degree. Students may pursue degrees in Civil, Electrical, Mechanical and Chemical engineering as well as their sub-disciplines. Upon completion of the last two years, the student also earns a Bachelor of Science with a major in Mathematics degree from Hawai‘i Pacific University.

The University of Southern California offers engineering degrees in aerospace engineering, biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, environmental engineering, industrial and systems engineering, material science and engineering, mechanical engineering, and petroleum engineering.

Washington University offers engineering degrees in chemical engineering, civil engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, engineering and public policy, mechanical engineering, and systems science and mathematics.

3-2 Engineering is a concentration within HPU's Mathematics program.

Use the "3-2 Engineering--Sample 3-Year Plan" link to see how the current major requirement can be completed in three years at HPU.


PROGRAM OBJECTIVES

Students who major in the Mathematics 3-2 Engineering program will:

  1. Recognize and understand a core of fundamental mathematical and science-based operational skills.
  2. Apply mathematical and science-based problem-solving skills to a variety of real-world problems.
  3. Experience the application of mathematics and science in a varied multi-cultural context at HPU.
  4. Employ appropriate research methodology in exploring mathematical and science-based skills and their use in problem solving.
  5. Develop comprehensive oral and written communication skills in the pursuit of a broad-based mathematics and science foundation.
  6. Use mathematics and science-based skills in both individualized and team-oriented applications.
