Engineering

Siena offers a four- or five-year, cooperative, dual-degree engineering option with several engineering schools. Students major in one of the physical sciences at Siena for three years then transfer to the engineering school for a fourth and fifth year in an engineering curriculum.

Siena’s engineering programs give students an advantage because they attain the benefits of a liberal arts education with focused studies in engineering. Students learn to think critically, communicate effectively and develop a comprehensive grasp of the principles and techniques of engineering.

Students in the 3/2 program spend their first 3 years at Siena and then transfer to an affiliated engineering school to complete an additional 2 years. At the end of 4 years, the student receives his/her BS in physics from Siena, and at the end of five years, the student receives a BE.
