ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Four-Year Public Institutions

If an engineering bachelor's degree program isn’t available at your four-year ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ public institution, you might be interested in transferring to the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science. We encourage you to explore our 14 undergraduate programs. If you are planning a transfer from a ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Community College, please see specific guidelines on community college transfer.

The minimum admission criteria to transfer to ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Engineering BS Degree Programs is as follows:

  • Cumulative college GPA of a 3.00
  • Completion of two semesters of college-level calculus and one semester of calculus-based physics or college-level chemistry
  • 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 Program is 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 ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder are highly regarded, but we know not every student can live in Boulder. Our partnership program with ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Mesa University gives students the chance to earn a ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ 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 ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder faculty who live in Grand Junction. The partnership follows the same hands-on curriculum as ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder, beginning with the earliest freshman classes and culminating in a year-long senior design project.

Through a collaboration between Western ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ University and the University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science, students will be able to obtain bachelor’s of science degrees in mechanical engineering and (launching Fall of 2025) biomedical engineering as graduates of the University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ 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 ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder students, all while remaining on the Western campus in Gunnison, ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥. Graduates in the partnership will receive a bachelor of science degree and diploma from the University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science.
