A path to two degrees.
How’s this for efficient? Earn two bachelor’s degrees in five years—getting a liberal arts foundation at Berry and engineering credentials from either Georgia Tech or Kennesaw State.
By starting at Berry, you’ll get small classes (20-30 students instead of hundreds at a large university), close mentorship from your professors, and the problem-solving and communication skills that will make you a sought-after engineer.
Join faculty in hands-on research that will set you apart in graduate school. We’ll get you into the lab early so that you can make the most of your three years at Berry.
Dual-Degree Engineering FACULTY
Dr. Todd Timberlake mentors and guides students through transferring to Georgia Tech or Kennesaw State. He also teaches courses on electronics and the mechanics of heat and sound and conducts research (which often involves students) on quantum chaos and strongly driven systems.
Earn a paycheck while logging relevant hands-on experience through Berry’s LifeWorks program—whether as a physics research assistant, a laboratory technician or a tutor for math and physics courses.
Dual-Degree Engineering Courses
Explore the engineering design process and build teamwork skills while building robots for competition.
Develop technical writing and computational skills that are useful for a variety of fields—and complete an independent computational physics project.
Carry out and report on sophisticated experiments in modern physics, including quantum mechanics and relativity.
Dual-Degree Engineer LIVES
Kya Wiggins ’22 pictures herself working as a mechanical or aerospace engineer, and Berry College helped her connect the dots to realize her vision. The physics major tapped into a network of opportunities for undergraduate research, accelerated learning and practical experience that will give her a competitive edge. “I want to better understand how the world works using scientific methods that I can apply to real-world problems,” she says.
