SUPPLEMENTAL AND PREPROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS 4 209 ENGINEERING Students interested in pursuing an engineering degree can begin their studies at IU South Bend in the Department of Physics and Astronomy. The department has dualdegree arrangements with engineering departments at other institutions, under which students can earn both a Bachelor of Science in Physics from IU South Bend and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering from the partnering institution, following at least three years of study at IU South Bend and two years of study at the partnering institution. More information about these 3/2 dualdegree arrangements can be found in the Physics and Astronomy section of the listing of undergraduate programs in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Students interested in transferring to an engineering degree program without pursuing a physics degree from IU South Bend should consult the admissions office at the institution to which they hope to transfer. While specific requirements for transfer admission vary by institution, the courses listed below are required in most engineering degree programs. Specifically, they are required of students transferring into one of the professional engineering schools at the West Lafayette campus of Purdue University. (All courses are 3 credit hours, unless otherwise designated.) CSCI-C 101 Computer Programming I (4 cr.) ENG-W 131 Elementary Composition 1 MATH-M 215 Calculus I (5 cr.) MATH-M 216 Calculus II (5 cr.) PHYS-P 221 Physics 1 (5 cr.) PHYS-P 222 Physics 2 (5 cr.) SPCH-S 121 Public Speaking Sequence 1 CHEM-C 105 CHEM-C 125 Principles of Chemistry I Experimental Chemistry I (2 cr.) Sequence 2 CHEM-C 106 Principles of Chemistry II CHEM-C 126 Experimental Chemistry II (2 cr.) A limited number of courses in the social and behavioral sciences or in the arts and humanities can generally also be applied toward the requirements of an engineering degree program. Students interested in taking course work in engineering at IU South Bend should contact the faculty advisor, Monika Lynker, in physics and astronomy soon after admission to IU South Bend to discuss an appropriate degree program. LAW In the United States, students apply for law school admission after they have received a four-year bachelor’s degree (either a B.A. or B.S.) in a major of their choice. Following diverse paths to prepare themselves for law school, successful students come from all walks of life with diverse experiences and different courses of study. Students attend law school for three to four years and, when they complete their studies, most earn a juris doctor (J.D.) degree and then take a written bar examination in the state(s) or regions(s) in which they wish to practice law. Some common undergraduate degrees of students currently in law schools are political science, history, English, philosophy, psychology, criminal justice, and business. Many IU South Bend students also take a certificate or minor in paralegal studies, which further prepares them for law school admission and the legal profession. These, and many other majors and minors, help develop students’ analytical and communication skills, including critical thinking, reasoning, writing and oral communication—all important skills for success in law school. To be admitted to law school, students must have a strong undergraduate cumulative grade point average and an acceptable score on the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT). The very best schools will only accept the top students. Indiana University has two law schools: Indiana University School of Law-Bloomington and Indiana University School of Law-Indianapolis; each has its own admissions requirements. Application forms for admission are available at: Office of Admissions Indiana University School of Law-Bloomington 211 S. Indiana Avenue Bloomington, Indiana 47405-7001 Office of Admissions Indiana University School of Law-Indianapolis 735 West New York Street Indianapolis, Indiana 46202-5222 Students interested in law school should obtain additional information about law schools from the Pre- Law Handbook published by Bobbs-Merrill and prepared by the Association of American Law Schools and the Law School Admission Test Council. For pre-law advising, student should call the Department of Political Science to make an appointment. MEDICINE A student is eligible for admission to the Indiana University School of Medicine upon receipt of a bachelor’s degree (or in exceptional cases, completion of 90 credit hours of university-level courses; however, nearly all students admitted to the School of Medicine have a bachelor’s degree). A student who plans to apply to medical school may earn his or her bachelor’s degree in any major, but must complete the following courses prior to admission: (All courses are 3 credit hours, unless otherwise designated.)
