Dual-Degree Doubles Student Opportunities

Years before she matriculated at Spelman College, Shavonne C. Cullers was a dual-degree kind of girl. In high school, she entered the girl- and minority-oriented Mathematics, Science and Engineering Academy to develop oil and gas sector professionals.

Soon Cullers knew she wanted to attend Spelman and enter its dual-degree engineering program. In the program, each student spends at least three academic years at the College, and two years at one of 12 participating engineering schools offering engineering majors that include aerospace, computer, electrical and nuclear engineering.
