Engineering physics majors are expected to have a basic understanding of calculus, physics, chemistry, and computer science. First-year students interested in the major should take the placement test in mathematics.

Engineers with blinders on can do more harm than good. Dartmouth gives you time to branch out, look around, and experiment with different subjects.

With your Bachelor of Arts (AB) degree, you’ll have the analytical, creative, and communications skills you’ll need to succeed and lead in engineering—or any other field. You’ll take a full range of Dartmouth liberal arts courses, from the arts and humanities to the social and physical sciences. In fact, half your classes will be in non-engineering subjects, so you can deepen your understanding of the world—and prepare to make a difference in it.
