From MHC to Graduate
School in Engineering
Mount Holyoke offers outstanding preparation for graduate school
engineering programs. In recent years, all Mount Holyoke alumnae
who have gone on to graduate school in engineering have majored
in physics and/or mathematics. Strong preparation in physics and
mathematics is essential. How students choose their MHC major can
also depend on what area of engineering they want to pursue. A major
in chemistry could lead to graduate work in chemical engineering.
A background in chemistry and biology could also prepare students
for environmental engineering. A computer science major could lead
to graduate work in computer engineering. Many MHC alumnae also
go on to earn doctorates in computer science; for more information
visit the Department
of Computer Science. Any student who wants to pursue graduate
work in engineering should take at least one or two engineering
courses at UMass via the Five College exchange.
