Mathematics Major with Engineering or Computer Science Minor

Dual Degree with Texas Tech University

Wayland has a dual degree program with Texas Tech in the areas of engineering and computer science. In essence, a student spends three years at Wayland taking mathematics, science, and core requirements. Along with some summer work, the ﬁnal two years are spent at Texas Tech taking engineering/computer science classes. Enough hours from Texas Tech are transferred to Wayland to allow a student to obtain both a B.S. in mathematics (with a minor in engineering or computer sciences from Wayland) and a B.S. in a speciﬁc ﬁeld of engineering (civil, electrical, etc.) or computer science from Texas Tech. Engineering is a ﬁve-year course of study and this cooperative program gives an attractive way to receive two degrees while completing most core and mathematics courses in a small college setting. Because this is a dual degree program, the degree from Wayland and Texas Tech must be completed in the same year and term.

Courses to be Completed at Texas Tech University

Texas Tech may require core curriculum classes not covered by Wayland’s core curriculum. If a student has not completed two years of a single foreign language in high school, at least two semesters of a single foreign language at the ﬁrst-year college level is required. Choose from either engineering or computer science.

Engineering

Professional engineering courses depend upon the type of engineering chosen, and can range from 55 to 75 hours. Taking courses in the summer at Texas Tech during the time courses are being taken at Wayland is recommended.

Computer Science

Approximately 60 hours of computer science courses, and three hours of electrical engineering courses.
