Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering, B.S. Double Major

This double major option allows a Saint Louis University student to take additional courses to complete a bachelor’s degree with both aerospace and mechanical engineering majors. The student must complete the standard requirements for one of these majors (the primary major). In addition, the student must complete an additional 23 or 25 credits in the other field (the secondary major). SLU students pursuing this option are responsible for creating a schedule that allows them to finish these courses in a timely fashion while meeting all pre- and co-requisite requirements.
