Lourdes College is offering a new Engineering Transfer Program through a partnership with the University of Detroit Mercy (UDM). The program allows students to take math, science and humanities classes at Lourdes then complete their designated Bachelor of Engineering degree (Civil, Electrical, Manufacturing or Mechanical) at UDM.
Students enrolled in this program will attend Lourdes College for one to two years of full-time study and will then transfer to UDM to complete their degree. The Engineering Transfer Program is open to both full and part-time students.
One of the unique components of the program is the option for full-time Lourdes pre-engineering students to take Engineering Graphics and Design (E105) and Introduction to Solid Modeling (E107) at UDM before transferring at no cost. A second benefit of the program is the completion of three cooperative work assignments, equivalent to one full year of work experience. During the cooperative assignments, students will earn money, obtain real-world experience and gain a full resume before graduating.
