Dual degree transfer guidelinesIntra-University transfers
You don't need to apply in advance for the dual degree program.
Just take the appropriate pre-engineering courses and apply using
a special application available from your pre-engineering advisor.
Selection is based on the successful completion of appropriate
courses and the calculation of a “technical grade point
average” using grades in calculus, chemistry, computer science,
calculus-based physics, and calculus-based statistics. If a specific
course has been repeated, only the second grade is used in the
“technical GPA” for the purpose of admission.

English composition
One course for all majors. Additional writing-intensive courses
will be taken after admission to IT.
Liberal education requirement
Dual degree students are not required to take any liberal education
courses while in IT. The University's requirement is satisfied
by the student's completion of requirements for the first college.

Dual degree students who reside outside of Minnesota and who do
not quality for reciprocity
(including international students) qualify for a special tuition
rate equal to 150 percent of resident tuition.
