5-Year Program in Robotics and Mechatronic Systems Engineering with a Concentration in Electrical Engineering (BRMSEw/EE-MECE) to Master of Electrical & Computer Engineering (MECE)

Description

The College of Engineering & Science offers a combined Bachelor of Robotics and Mechatronic Systems Engineering with a Concentration in Electrical Engineering and Master of Electrical and Computer Engineering program. In order to complete both degrees in five years, the student must (a) be very well prepared as an incoming freshman, ready to take our core engineering courses, (b) satisfy all the admission criteria (see below) at the end of the  junior year, and (c) maintain a 3.25 GPA, in order to take graduate level courses while still an undergraduate.

Program Learning Outcomes

Admission into the Program

Qualifications for the 5-year Engineering program for new freshmen:

  • A minimum ACT composite score of 26, with a minimum of 22 in each section, and a minimum of 23 in the Mathematics section.  Or minimum SAT scores: 560 Mathematics, 560 ERW, and 1230 combined.
  • With ACT/SAT scores above: a high school grade point average of 3.4 overall on a 4.0 point scale, and the same for the combined mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology courses.
  • Without ACT/SAT scores: a high school grade point average of 3.6 overall on a 4.0 point scale, and the same for the combined mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology courses.
  • Students must place into appropriate-level freshmen courses at Detroit Mercy in order to be able to complete both the bachelor and master degrees in five years.

Qualifications for the 5-year Engineering program for current Detroit Mercy juniors/seniors:

  • Students with a GPA of 3.25 and 95 credit hours can apply for the program near the end of their third year or in the beginning of their fourth year.
  • Students must be on-track to complete their undergraduate degree in four years. (Some exceptions may apply.)

Additional Information:

  • If accepted into the program, students may take up to six (6) graduate credits in their fourth year that will count towards both undergraduate and graduate requirements.
  • In their fifth year, students will be registered as full-time graduate students, which requires that they are registered for at least nine credit hours of graduate-level courses per term. These courses will be charged at the graduate tuition rate.
  • To remain in the program, undergraduate students must maintain a minimum 3.25 GPA at Detroit Mercy and be progressing steadily toward graduation.

Degree Requirements (BRMSE 144 credits + MECE 30 credits, 6 credits double-counted)

The course requirements for the 5-Year Bachelor of Robotics & Mechatronics Engineering to Master of Electrical & Computer Engineering include 144 credits of undergraduate course work and 30 credits of graduate coursework. Six credits taken at the graduate-level will be double-counted towards the undergraduate degree, so the total credits completed will be 168 credits. The course requirements are based on the current existing requirements for each program separately. Please review separate catalog pages for Bachelor of Robotics & Mechatronic Systems Engineering and Master of Electrical & Computer Engineering for degree requirements.
