East Central University does not offer an engineering degree.
We have a pre-engineering program that is managed
out
of the physics department.
This is a 2 or 3 year program which gives students the
fundamentals of physics, chemistry, math,
etc. that are needed to prepare a student to transfer
to a university that offers an engineering degree.
Some students also transfer to an engineering
technology
program. Many students complete a physics degree
at ECU and then transfer to an engineering school to
obtain a master's degree. So there are many options to consider.
If you are interested in transferring to OU
or OSU, click on the university and courses
for the individual specialties
of engineering are listed. Note that these are
the most current provided to us and are subject to change by OU or OSU
at any time. So it is possible that you could
take
the courses here that fulfill a requirement and by the time you transfer
it might no longer be a requirement. The course
would count as an elective in such instances. We have not had
many
problems
with our students in this area.
Overall, ECU has been successful in preparing
students
for both engineering schools. We have MS and PhD graduates in
engineering
that have been in our pre-engineering program.
