Students will have the opportunity to explore five different engineering paths. Throughout the program, students will be immersed in the physics, chemistry, mathematics and computer science instruction they need to be prepared for a future in engineering. Pre-Engineering students will also enroll in typical university core curriculum and foundational curriculum courses. After completing the coursework, students may continue at UHCL in an existing degree program. Students may also apply for admission to the University of Houston Cullen College of Engineering upon satisfaction of UH transfer admission standards. Pre-Engineering students may transfer to any other university in the country pending that institution's admission and course transfer requirements. These programs require 56-65 hours based on specialization. Programs include University Core requirements and lower-level introductory engineering courses. University Core is listed separately in the catalog. Additional University Core requirements may be needed outside of this program depending upon selected specialization. Students who who complete this program will have an option to continue their education at UHCL's MENG program (pending meeting the program admission criteria), or to transfer to  other universities (pending that institution's admission and course transfer requirements) .
