University of Missouri-St. Louis/Washington University Joint Undergraduate Engineering Program

In 1993, Washington University and the University of Missouri–St. Louis held the first classes in the Joint Undergraduate Engineering Program. This partnership — the first of its kind in the United States — offers University of Missouri–St. Louis students the opportunity to benefit from the engineering program at Washington University and its century-long tradition of excellence. Effective in October 1999, the three bachelor's degrees (civil, electrical and mechanical engineering) offered in our joint program were accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. In addition to being the first undergraduate engineering degrees offered in a public/private partnership, these are also the first such degrees to receive ABET accreditation.

The courses are organized for both full-time students and part-time students with daytime commitments who need to attend classes in the evening. Students who enter the program take about half of their course work — mathematics, physics, chemistry, humanities and social sciences — on the campus of the University of Missouri–St. Louis. The remaining half of the degree program, which consists of upper-level engineering courses and laboratories, is taken on the Washington University campus. Students may choose civil, electrical or mechanical engineering. Students receive their undergraduate engineering degrees from the University of Missouri.
