3/2 Programs in Chemistry
3/2 Programs in Physics
- The Department of Chemistry and Physics at Radford University and the College of Engineering at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) offer joint programs in chemistry and chemical engineering, and in physics and engineering. These are dual degree programs in which the student will receive a B.S. in chemistry or physical science (physics option) from Radford University and a B.S. in engineering from Virginia Tech. The approximate time required for a student to complete these programs is five years. During the first three years, the student completes the major requirements in chemistry or physics, as well as most or all of the general education requirements, at Radford. Some introductory engineering courses should also be completed while the student is at Radford; some of these may be taken during the summer. The student then transfers to Virginia Tech and, in two additional years, completes the requirements for a degree in engineering. Participants in this program who have a grade point average of 3.0 or above are guaranteed admission to the College of Engineering at Virginia Tech. All degree requirements for both Radford University and Virginia Tech should be satisfied by the end of the fifth year. The student then receives a degree from each institution.
