Get a start on two degrees
SHSU’s 3+2 Dual Degree program allows students to earn a BS in Physics and a BS in Engineering. After completing foundational studies in physics, calculus, and core curriculum at SHSU, students transfer to an accredited engineering program to finish their engineering degree. Upon completion, credits are transferred back to SHSU to award the physics degree simultaneously. This pathway prepares students for advanced careers in civil, mechanical, electrical, or other engineering fields while deepening their scientific expertise.
