WIU and U of Iowa Sign Engineering Transfer Agreement
Western Illinois University and the University of Iowa have come to an agreement that will allow select WIU students to transfer to the UI College of Engineering.
Students must have completed Western's Pre-Engineering core curriculum with at least a 3.0, among other critera. This according to Westerns Provost Jack Thomas.
Thomas also stated that any students that meet the criteria will be guaranteed admission upon transfer to the University of Iowa College of Engineering.
Iowa's College of Engineering ranks among the top 20% engineering graduate and undergraduate programs nationally by US News & World Report. It is the first in the U.S. to offer a Technological Entrepreneurship Certificate with an engineering degree. It also excels internationally in several specialty and interdisciplinary research areas, including computer-aided design and simulation, human factors, environmental health solutions, biotechnology, medical imaging, hydraulics and water/air resources, photopolymerization, and nanoscience and nanotechnology, among other areas.
