For possible credit from all other international
diplomas, students must contact a professional
academic equivalency service—such as the World
Educational Service (WES)—to provide an official
evaluation. Tufts accepts possible credit only for
certain scores on standardized examinations and
reserves the right to determine equivalencies toward
the Tufts degree.
Engineering Double Majors
Students pursuing a major within the School of
Engineering may undertake a second major with
the consent of the respective department in the
College of Liberal Arts or the School of
Engineering. To do so, the student must notify the
department of the second major at least one
semester before graduation. No more than half the
courses used to fulfill the requirements for one
concentration may be used to satisfy the
requirements for a second or subsequent one.
Students may not complete the second or
subsequent concentration in the same discipline.
Students following the bachelor of science in
engineering and the bachelor of science in
engineering science are considered to have
engineering and engineering science, respectively,
as majors and may participate in double-major
programs.
Undergraduate Minor Programs
In addition to completing the courses for the
concentration requirement, an undergraduate may
elect to enroll in a minor program in the College of
Liberal Arts or the School of Engineering. All
courses used in fulfillment of the minor program
must be taken for a grade. No more than two
courses used to fulfill a foundation or concentration
requirement may be counted toward fulfillment of
the minor.
