Interested in Multiple Programs?
Dual Major with CS-Eng, DS-Eng, or Computer Engineering
CS-Eng, DS-Eng, and CE students can pursue a dual major with another CoE department, when interested. Students considering adding a second major should be mindful of the following:
- Dual majors must reach 142 CTP before graduation.
- Dual majors pursuing two EECS majors must complete an additional 14 credits of technical coursework beyond what’s shared between two majors.
- Students must take a CS-Eng MDE course and earn a C or higher, even if a senior design course is required of the other major.
- Please note: A dual major combination of CS-Eng with DS-Eng is not allowed.

Multiple Dependent Degree Program (MDDP)
Students hoping to declare two majors housed within different schools/colleges must apply for MDDP. Approval is required from both units in order to participate in MDDP.

- CS-Eng and DS-Eng students only:
- If you would like the College of Engineering to be your Home Unit, please obtain a signature from your other school/college first. Once signed by the other school/college, submit your form to the Office of Recruitment and Admissions in CoE (engin-our@umich.edu) for a signature to confirm whether or not you qualify for MDDP.
