5-Year Bachelor of Electrical Engineering to Master of Electrical and Computer Engineering (BEE to MECE)

Description

The College of Engineering & Science offers a combined Bachelor of Electrical Engineering to Master of Electrical and Computer Engineering program.

In order to complete both the BEE and MECE degrees in five years, the student must a) be very well prepared as an incoming freshman, ready to take our engineering foundation courses, b) satisfy all the admission criteria (see below), and c) maintain a 3.25 GPA in order to take graduate level courses while still an undergraduate.

    • With ACT/SAT scores above: a high school grade point average of 3.4 overall on a 4.0 point scale, and the same for the combined mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology courses.
    • Without ACT/SAT scores: a high school grade point average of 3.6 overall on a 4.0 point scale, and the same for the combined mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology courses.
    • Students must place into appropriate-level freshmen courses at Detroit Mercy in order to be able to complete both the bachelor and master degrees in five years.

    Qualifications for the 5-year Engineering program for current Detroit Mercy students:

    • Students with a GPA of 3.25 can apply any time after they have completed at least 30 credits in their program.
    • Students should be on track to complete their undergraduate degree in four years. (Students who may take longer should consult with their financial aid counselor and be aware this will extend their total time for both degrees.)
