The Pre-Engineering program will provide a degree pathway for students who want to pursue engineering in spite of the fact they they are not calculus-ready at the time of their first semester. Also, this program will provide a degree that allows students to finish the Mechanical Engineering Specialization with one additional year. Upon completion, the students will be able to transfer with Junior status into the ME program at the University of Wyoming.
