Dunwoody College of Technology, a Minneapolis-based institution, has launched a post-secondary enrollment option (PSEO) for students interested in pursuing an engineering degree while in high school. The college is now accepting applications for the fall 2024 semester.
Students accepted into the program, called Engineering Now, will earn college credits from an ABET-accredited engineering program while meeting high school requirements, the school says. Engineering Now is open to Minnesota students entering their senior year in fall 2024 (or senior-level equivalency in a home school program). Students accepted into the program will learn hands-on from faculty who have worked professionally in engineering. Interested students must complete the application process by May 30, 2024.
“We continue to see a high demand for work-ready engineers from industry partners in Minnesota,” says Scott Stallman, provost and incoming president. “With the Engineering Now program, we can respond to industry needs in a way that most benefits our students—by offering them an accelerated pathway into great careers in the engineering field. Engineering Now is another way that Dunwoody continues to distinguish ourselves as an innovator in higher education.”
PSEO is a program created by the Minnesota Department of Education that allows eligible high school students to enroll and earn credits for college courses for free while completing their secondary education. PSEO students are provided with a Dunwoody-issued laptop and all required software as part of the program.
