Bachelor of Architecture/Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering Dual Degree Program
As a six-year dual professional degree program, the Bachelor of Architecture/Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering is founded upon the mutual interests of both architecture and architectural engineering.
For admission to the dual degree program, a student must meet the Admission Requirements of the School of Architecture and the requirements given in Admission and Registration for the Cockrell School of Engineering. Students are advised to contact both the School of Architecture and the Cockrell School of Engineering for specific information about the dual degree program.
Students in the dual degree program complete the requirements of the Bachelor of Architecture and the Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering degrees. See the descriptions for the the five-year Bachelor of Architecture degree program and the Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering for more information.
The following outline of courses is the suggested method for completing the requirements for both degrees simultaneously. Dual degree students must also consult the additional requirements of the Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering degree. Dual degree students are responsible for fulfilling the requirements of both degrees.
A student who follows the suggested arrangement of courses below completes all requirements for both degrees at the end of the spring semester of the sixth year.
