Chemistry (B.A.) Leading to Chemical or Biomedical Engineering (B.S.) at Washington University

Students enrolled in the engineering dual degree and majoring in chemistry complete a minimum of 120 credits to earn a bachelor’s degree. While enrolled at Salve Regina University, students complete a minimum of 90 credits, including 40 credits of core courses and 62 credits of major courses. Up to 30 credits are completed after transfer to Washington University. Before conferral of the B.A. in Chemistry from Salve Regina University, the student must request that Washington University forward transcripts to verify completion of all required course work. See Engineering Dual Degree for more information.
