The Joint Undergraduate Engineering Program of UM-St. Louis and Washington University was approved in 1993 by the University of Missouri and the Coordinating Board for Higher Education to support Nontraditional, placebound students who wish to pursue a bachelor's degree in engineering.

The program is designed to offer course work beyond the pre-engineering courses at UM-St. Louis and the area community colleges. Pre-engineering and general education courses are offered at UM-St. Louis, and upper-level engineering courses are offered on the Washington University campus. Students will be admitted to the upper-division program only after they have completed an acceptable pre-engineering program. They can earn a bachelor of science in civil engineering (B.S.C.E.), a bachelor of science in electrical engineering (B.S.E.E.), or a bachelor of science in mechanical engineering (B.S.M.E.).

Professional engineering degree programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.  The B.S.C.E., the B.S.E.E., and the B.S.M.E. have been designed to meet ABET accreditation requirements.  However, ABET does not consider degree programs for accreditation before there are graduates.  Thus, the ABET-accredited degrees, but they are typically permitted to take the examinations required for engineering licensure after demonstrating that the course work they completed is at least equivalent to that which one would find in an ABET-accredited degree program.

Admission

Admission to candidacy for these degrees is granted jointly by the University of Missouri-St. Louis and Washington University.

Normally admission is granted to persons who have completed the pre-engineering program with a minimum grade point average of 2.75 over all mathematics, chemistry, physics, and introductory engineering courses (statics and dynamics).

Fees
Students register on the UM-St. Louis campus and pay UM-St. Louis fees plus an engineering fee for both Pre-engineering and Engineering courses. Limits on enrollments are determined by the availability of resources.
