Summary of program features<br />
1. The dual degree program leads to a<br />
degree in engineering from Purdue School<br />
Engineering Dual-Degree<br />

The EDDP (Engineering Dual Degree<br />
2. The EDDP program is not a 3-2 program<br />
Program) results from a partnership between where students are expected to transfer<br />
the well-established programs at <strong>Butler</strong> <strong>University</strong><br />
after three years to another school to<br />
