What opportunities does Wellesley offer in engineering studies?
The Wellesley Engineering Laboratory (We-Lab) offers introductory engineering courses for those interested in learning a bit (or a lot) more about engineering. We also advise students interested in engineering and aim to connect with many disciplines across the campus. Students interested in studying engineering further can cross-register with nearby Olin College and MIT. Olin offers an engineering certificate; both of these schools also have dual degree options.
Does Wellesley College offer a major or minor in engineering?
No. Engineering at Wellesley is focused on offering introductory engineering opportunities to all interested students in order to further their liberal arts education. Students interested in receiving an engineering degree should reach out to the engineering advising team at Wellesley for support, who can help them explore the possibility of going to graduate school in engineering or consider double degree options with Olin and MIT, recognizing the difficulty in pursuing two degrees on two campuses in five years.Â
