It combines the advantages and opportunities of Chapman s small, personalized academic environment with the breadth, facilities and distinguished faculty of UCI s renowned engineering program. This new program presents our students with excellent comprehensive educational opportunities. Chapman expects there to be five to six students enrolled in each of the three program options each year. The cohort is designed to be small, consistent with Chapman s educational philosophy, Doti said. Dual degree program students will pay the tuition and fees of each university for courses taken there, respectively.
Financial aid is available at each university.
Currently there are about 300 science majors and 108 graduate students. The number of full-time faculty has grown from 18 to 45 since 1991. Our efforts to build the Division of Natural and Applied Sciences are continuing to pay dividends, said Frank Frisch, chair of the division. UCI s partnership with Chapman reflects their confidence in our undergraduate instruction, the rigor of our programs, the quality of our faculty, and the potential of our students. It s a great feeling.
