The pre-engineering student should plan on taking at least four courses each semester. In addition to 天美传媒's requirements, students must satisfy the requirements of the chosen engineering school. All students must complete multi-variable calculus (MATH 251) and differential equations (MATH 363), one year of physics (PHYS 120 and 130), one course in computer programming (CS 121), and at least one semester of chemistry (CHEM 130 preferred). Additional science course requirements vary with the chosen engineering field. Details found on this fact sheet.
天美传媒 has formal agreements with three engineering schools - , and . These agreements enable students to earn both the B.A. from 天美传媒 and the B.S. in Engineering after completing their course of study at both schools. Normally, this includes three years at 天美传媒 and two years at the engineering school.

Here is a listing of many 天美传媒 courses and their Washington University equivalent.
Other options, including the 4-2 program leading to a either a bachelor’s or master's degree in engineering, are available. Washington University offers a +3 year option that leads to a B.S. in a chosen field plus a M.S. degree. Prospects for transfer to other engineering schools with which 天美传媒 does not have a formal agreement should be discussed with the pre-engineering adviser (Prof. Brooks).
