Missouri State University and the Missouri University of Science & Technology are proud to offer two engineering programs on the Missouri State University campus – Civil and Electrical Engineering.  Missouri State University will continue to offer a strong pre-engineering program to all students who wish to transfer to the Missouri University of Science & Technology and major in other areas of engineering.

The Cooperative Engineering Program will be phased in over a four year period.  Year 1 of the Civil and Electrical Engineering cooperative programs will be offered during the 2008-2009 academic year on the Missouri State University campus.  Years 1 and 2 will be offered during the 2009-2010 academic year.  Years 1-3 will be offered during the 2010-2011 academic year, and the full program will be offered starting in the 2011-2012 academic year.  The first graudates of the Cooperative Engineering Program will be in May 2012.  The Cooperative Engineering Program is being developed to meet all ABET accreditation standards.

All entering students into the Civil or Electrical Engineering programs must first satisfy the admission requirements in the Missouri State University catalog.  Admission into the Cooperative Engineering Program will be made by the Missouri University of Science & Technology, in consultation with Missouri State University, according to the admission criteria described in the Missouri University of Science & Technology catalog.  Students will apply for admission after completing the freshman year curriculum.

Freshman Year:  The Freshman year curriculum is the same for all engineering majors.  The EGR 110 - Study and Careers in Engineering course will discuss the different fields of engineering and will help students decide which field of eningeering they wish to study.  Students who wish to study Civil or Electrical Engineering will complete their degrees on the Missouri State campus.  Students wishing to pursue other engineering degrees will transfer to the Missouri University of Science & Technology after completing two years of coursework on the Missouri State campus.  The common Freshman curriculum is below:

     First Semester

                EGR 110 - Study and Careers in Engineering                       1 credit

                IDM 110 - Industrial Design w/computer applications          3 credits

                *MTH261 - Analytic Geometry & Calculus I                              5 credits

                 CHM 160 - Chemistry I                                                                4 credits

                 **History requirement                                                                  3 credits

                                                                                                           Total = 16 credits

     Second Semester

                ENG 110 - Writing I                                                                        3 credits

                *MTH 280 - Analytic Geometry & Calculus II                             5 credits

                *PHY 203 - Physics I                                                                     5 credits

                ECO155 - Macroeconomics                                                        3 credits

                                                                                                          Total =  16 credits

*See prerequisite requirements.

**The History requirement is selected from HST 121, HST 122 or PLS 101.

 

The remaining three years of the engineering curriculum depends on the major selected.  Students majoring in Civil or Electrical Engineering will complete their degree at the Missouri State University campus.  Students pursuing other engineering degrees should consult with an academic advisor to plan their second year of coursework at Missouri State University, and to prepare to transfer to the Missouri University of Science & Technology to complete their degree.
