The College of Engineering - Chemical Engineering

Transfer Student

Hello, Rowan Chemical Engineering usually accepts a small number of transfer students each year into our program. The following links should help you through this process. The normal transfer process requires that a student take 3 additional years at Rowan to graduate. There is an alternate route that if a student takes 3 courses in the summer before starting at Rowan University, then they have the possibility of graduating in 2 additional years.

Rowan Course Equivalents These pages are useful to determine the Rowan equivalent courses. For transfer into the program we accept the chemistry sequence of Chemistry I & II and Organic I & II in place of our first 2 years of chemistry at Rowan.

4 year plan (2 years at alternate institution and Summer + 2 years at Rowan) [Excel Spreadsheet] [PDF]
- We have recently added 3 summer courses to allow transfer students to graduate in 2 years and 1 summer at Rowan. These courses are outlined on the excel spreadsheet that is linked to this file. If you do not have the required differential equations course then you will also need to take this in the summer. Currently Rutgers Camden offers this course in the summer semester in the evening.

5 year plan (2 years at alternate institution and Summer + 3 years at Rowan) [Excel Spreadsheet] [PDF]
This is the traditional plan that most transfer students have followed. The additional year is caused by the prospective student missing the 3 engineering courses required in the sophomore year at Rowan as well as essential math, chemistry and other courses. These courses can be taken at Rowan in the Summer and then a transfer student has the opportunity to graduate in 2 years at Rowan (see above).
