Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Four-Year Public Institutions

If an engineering bachelor's degree program isn’t available at your four-year Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ public institution, you might be interested in transferring to the Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵÌýBoulder College of Engineering and Applied Science.ÌýWe encourage you to explore ourÌý14 undergraduate programs.ÌýIf you are planning a transfer from a Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Community College, please see specific guidelines onÌýcommunity college transfer.

The minimum admission criteria to transfer to Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Engineering BS Degree Programs is as follows:

  • Cumulative college GPA of a 3.00
  • Completion of two semesters of college-level calculus
  • Completion of ONE semester of the following:
    • Calculus-based physics
    • College-level chemistry (excludes introductory to chemistry classes)
    • Programming course (such as C, C++, Python, Matlab)Ìý
  • Grades in math and science courses should be B or better

NOTE: AP/IB credit does not count towards math/science requirements for transfer admission.

The minimum admission criteria to transfer to the BA in Computer Science Degree ProgramÌýis as follows:

  • Calculus 1 (grade of C or better)
  • Calculus 2 (grade of C or better)
  • Introduction to Computer Programming
    • Must be a computer programming language course (Java, Python, C, C++)
      • C++ is preferred
  • B grade or higher in all computing courses
  • 2.500 Cumulative GPA

NOTE: AP/IB credit does not count towards math/computer science requirements for transfer admission.

The mechanical engineering, electrical and computer engineering, and civil engineering programs at the University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder are highly regarded, but we know not every student can live in Boulder. Our partnership program with Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Mesa University gives students the chance to earn a Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder mechanical or civil engineering degree entirely in Grand Junction. The first two years of the program are taught by CMU faculty, and the second two years are taught by Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder faculty who live in Grand Junction. The partnership follows the same hands-on curriculum as Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder, beginning with the earliest freshman classes and culminating in a year-long senior design project.

Through a collaboration between Western Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ University and the University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science, students will be able to obtain bachelor’s of science degrees inÌýmechanical engineering and (launching Fall of 2025) biomedical engineering as graduates of the University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder. With this partnership, they will have the opportunity to complete their first two years as Western students and the balance of their education as University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder students, all while remaining on the Western campus in Gunnison, Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ. Graduates in the partnership will receive a bachelor of science degree and diploma from the University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science.
