All Drake students (from any major) interested in engineering careers are invited to an on-campus lunch session on Monday, September 30 with Washington University’s McKelvey School of Engineering Associate Dean Chris Kroeger.

The information session, including pizza, will be held from 12:30-1:30pm in Science Connector Building 101. Drake University is proud to offer a dual-degree partnership with Washington University that allows students to combine liberal arts and specialized engineering training.

In this 3+2 (or 4+2) dual-degree program, students complete requirements for a Drake undergraduate degree (from any major) while receiving pre-professional advising, and then spend two years at Washington University in St. Louis to add specialty training in an engineering subfield of their choice (such as Biomedical Engineering; Computer Science & Engineering; Electrical & Systems Engineering; Energy, Environmental, & Chemical Engineering; Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science).

The student sign-up deadline is Friday, Sept. 27 by noon to reserve a lunch, but students may also complete this form to be sent information about the program even if you are unable to attend the overview session.
