This program is for students who want a liberal arts education and an engineering degree. Students in this program will earn, in five years, a B.A. or B.S. degree from Drew, and a B.S. degree from Columbia University in engineering. Students will spend three years at Drew, then transfer to Columbia at the end of their junior year for two additional years of study. Students should complete their degree requirements, their major requirements, and their pre-engineering requirements while at Drew. Applicants must obtain a minimum grade of B on their first attempt at each pre-engineering prerequisite courses. Admission to Columbia is based on a competitive review process and is not guaranteed. Options exist for a 4+2 schedule that allows students to be considered for admission to Columbia after their fourth year at Drew, which gives the student greater flexibility in their course planning.
The dual degree program is an attractive alternative to traditional engineering curricula, which are highly structured. Program graduates are “liberally educated engineers” possessing strong communications and problem-solving skills, and a broad background in the humanities and social sciences, as well as a high-quality technical education. They are well-prepared to advance in technical management and to play major roles in solving increasingly complex societal problems.

Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). OPT allows students to work for up to 3 years and develop real-world skills to survive in the competitive jobs market.
It is temporary employment for a period of 12-months that is directly related to the major area of study of an F-1 student. Eligible students have the option to apply for OPT employment authorization before completing their academic studies and/or after completing their academic studies.
