Resources for Transfer and Flex (Online/Evening) Students

SPU Welcomes Transfer Students into our Engineering Program!

Students may transfer into our Electrical Engineering or our General Engineering majors. In addition, our Electrical Engineering major is offered with a flex option (online/evening) for students who are working full-time. See below for a great scholarship opportunity for full-time students who transfer into EE.

Please see our Transfer Student  Guide for more information about transfer options.


All students considering transfer into an SPU engineering program should schedule an appointment with Prof. Kevin Bolding, chair of the Electrical Engineering department, to plan their program. Email Prof. Bolding .  For a sample schedule for electrical engineering students who have completed all courses recommended in the Transfer  Student Guide linked above, click here.

Students in Washington state community colleges are strongly encouraged to complete an approved Associate's direct transfer degree before entering SPU. Please confirm that the program you are working on is approved - not all Associate's degrees are approved. A list of approved programs is available at the SPU admissions web site.

What are the Engineering major options at SPU?

SPU offers B.S. degrees in electrical engineering (BSEE) and general engineering (BSGE).

  • Electrical Engineering (BSEE)

The BSEE degree is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).

  • General Engineering (BSGE)
    • Appropriate and Sustainable Engineering
    • Computer Engineering
    • Mechanical Engineering

The BSGE degree, new in 2009, offers concentrations in computer engineering, mechanical engineering, and appropriate and sustainable engineering.

The computer and mechanical engineering concentrations are natural complements to the electrical engineering program due to the many areas of synergy between these fields.

The appropriate and sustainable concentration is a unique program designed as a direct response to our Christian call for stewardship of our planet and service to the poor. Here, we seek to address our environmental footprint in the developed world though sustainable engineering solutions while addressing the needs of the world’s poor through development of appropriate technology.
