“As a person who loves to be outside, YHC and the surrounding area is the perfect place to experience many different aspects of the outdoors. My family and I also value the small town feel of our community. This feeling doesn’t just happen off campus but rather extends to campus with small class sizes and the chance to get to know everyone.”
Mathematics/Mechanical Engineering (3+2 with UGA)
The program includes three years of study at Young Harris College followed by two years of study at the University of Georgia. During the third year of study at Young Harris College, the student will apply for admission to the University of Georgia and complete the College of Engineering High Demand Major application process. After enrolling at the University of Georgia and successfully completing all curriculum requirements for the B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, the student will be awarded the B.S. in Mechanical Engineering offered by the University of Georgia, and will then transfer UGA courses back to Young Harris College to complete the B.S. in Mathematics.
