3-2 program with UW-Milwaukee to receive two B.S. degrees in five years

The Physics with Engineering Emphasis program allows students to participate in a 3-2 program with UW-Milwaukee to receive two B.S. degrees in five years. The Institutional agreement between Whitewater and Milwuakee describes the program in more detail.

The following table represents a 3 year plan for a physics major who wants to pursue an engineering career using the 3-2 program with UW-Milwaukee. This 3 year plan fulfills the requirements needed to transfer to UW-Milwaukee (for the 3-2 program) as well as the GenEd requirements for UW-Whitewater.
