Dual Degree Programs

Fisk Dual Degree Programs

Fisk University has a amazing history working with some of the countries fellow elite universities to help further our student education. Fisk currently has dual degree programs with Case Western Reserve University and Vanderbilt University focusing on the Pre-Professional programs.

The Fisk/Vanderbilt Dual Degree program allows a student to earn both a Bachelor's Degree from Fisk with a science major (Biology, Chemistry, 数学，计算机科学和物理)加上学士学位 Vanderbilt University in Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, 电气工程或机械工程专业. This is a five year program, with the first three years spent in residence at Fisk and the last two years spent living on the Vanderbilt campus.

才有资格参加这个项目, students must begin taking Vanderbilt engineering courses while still at Fisk (no later than the first semester of the junior year) and do well enough in these courses plus their Fisk coursework to qualify for admission to Vanderbilt. 这需要特别注意在菲斯克学习的课程顺序, 因此，应尽快与菲斯克双学位顾问联系.

The program is designed for the student to take all of his or her courses at Fisk during the freshman year. The student should normally cross register to take one to three hours at Vanderbilt each semester of the sophomore year. 在交叉注册之前申请双学位课程是必要的. The student should cross register to take four to eight hours at Vanderbilt during each semester of the junior year.

在大三下学期的1月15日之前, 学生应该填写适当的文件转到范德比尔特大学. 学生的所有财务事务将由范德比尔特大学处理. This means:

  • 学生必须将澳门皇冠赌场平台的成绩单寄到范德比尔特大学.

一旦做了这个，如果学生得到3.菲斯克和范德比尔特大学的平均分不低于5分, 无论是整体还是数学和科学, 范德比尔特双学位协调员将向V推荐.U. Admissions Office the admission of the student and Vanderbilt will provide the student with information on his/her housing contract.

While a Vanderbilt student, 所有学生的财务问题将通过范德比尔特大学处理. 学生将支付范德比尔特大学的学费. The student must keep in mind that all bills must be paid at Vanderbilt each semester before he or she will be allowed to continue the following semester.

The student will be responsible for making sure that each university has all the required information on them in order to graduate. The most important requirement is that the student must transfer his/her Vanderbilt transcript to Fisk the last semester before graduation. This is necessary so that Fisk can substitute major courses taken at Vanderbilt for the rest of the program electives and cognates needed to meet the graduation requirements from Fisk.
