EDDP Majors & Curriculum

Important Program Update

As the Indiana University and Purdue University partnership in IUPUI ended on June 30, 2024, it is necessary to redefine Butler’s partnership with Purdue Engineering programs. During this time of transition, no new students will be accepted to the Engineering Dual Degree Program.

All students currently enrolled in the Engineering Dual Degree Program, including those starting the program in fall 2023, will be able to complete their degrees on schedule and without interruption. Please direct any questions to Dr. Amber Russell, Program Director, at acrusse3@butler.edu.


Completion of the EDDP program results in a degree from both Butler University and the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at Indianapolis— two degrees, thus a dual degree program. The EDDP is not a 3–2 program where students are expected to transfer after three years to an engineering school to complete their studies. The program has a curriculum that integrates engineering, science, mathematics, computer science, social sciences, humanities and fine arts courses and allows residence and enrollment at Butler University for the duration of the program.  Engineering courses are taught on the Butler University campus during the first three years of the program.
