The University of North Georgia offers a dual degree program which allows students to receive a bachelor’s degree in physics from UNG and a bachelor’s degree in Engineering from a participating university. Students are provided the opportunity to attend the University of North Georgia for approximately three years before embarking on approximately two years of engineering coursework at the University of Georgia, Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia Southern University, Kennesaw State University, Clemson University, or Mercer University. After completing the academic requirements of both institutions, the student receives a bachelor’s degree in physics from the University of North Georgia and a bachelor’s degree in a chosen engineering field from the second institution.

Dual Degree Requirements:
