Fisk University Offers New Dual-Degree Program in Engineering With the University of Tennessee

Fisk University, the historically black educational institution in Nashville, has announced that it will offer a new dual-degree program in engineering with the University of Tennessee. The five-year dual-degree program will have students complete three years of training in a science curriculum at Fisk. If they have maintained a minimum of a 2.8 grade point average, the students will then transfer to the University of Tennessee for two years of training in engineering. Upon completion of the five-year program, students will receive two bachelor’s degrees, one from each institution.
