College of Saint Mary (CSM) and
the University of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Engineering and Technology (COET)
initiated a groundbreaking collaborative "2+3" engineering program, one that
offers degrees in the following four disciplines offered at the Peter Kiewit
Institute for Information Science, Technology and Engineering located on the
University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) south campus:
Architectural
Engineering (5-year program)
Civil
Engineering (4-year program)
Computer
Engineering (4-year program)
Electronics
Engineering (4-year program)
This outstanding
program allows a student to take courses at College of Saint Mary during her
first two years of the program. The
final three years (four years in architectural engineering) of the program
focus on engineering analysis and design courses that are offered by the COET
and specifically required for entry into the engineering profession.
Graduates
of the program will earn two college degrees, a Bachelor's degree in Science or
Mathematics from College of Saint Mary, and a Bachelor's degree in Engineering
- or a Master's for those in Architectural Engineering - from the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln.
By starting the
program at CSM, you'll begin your college-level engineering education in a
safe, friendly environment that emphasizes your academic, personal, and
spiritual development on a daily basis.
Moreover, the program is designed to make your third-year transition to
the University of Nebraska a completely seamless experience.
University
