Pre-Engineering

Schools of engineering will accept work from Hardin-Simmons University which is equivalent to courses in their engineering curriculum. In general, a student may attend Hardin-Simmons University for two years and then transfer approximately 50-60 credits into an engineering curriculum. Each student will consult with the pre-engineering advisor from the beginning to plan a program that will fit the particular engineering school and program in which the student is interested.

The following is a general guide showing work which may be transferred from Hardin-Simmons University into an engineering curriculum. Particular requirements should be determined from the catalog of the selected engineering school—the exact credits transferred will depend upon the area of engineering and school selected. Some courses are offered on a rotational basis; therefore, work closely with your advisor in preparing your schedule.
