Engineering is one of the Limited Enrollment Programs at the University of Maryland which means that all students transferring must be admitted to the University of Maryland and also meet specific Gateway Criteria.  

Students pursuing the online fire protection engineering courses will be Transfer Students. Most students will be External Transfer Students who are not currently at the University of Maryland and would transfer from a different institution or have prior coursework already completed. 

• Take advantage of the External Transfer Student Checklist.
• Reach out to Engineering Academic Services for questions about admissions and application to the University of Maryland. Virtual appointments are available.

Please visit the Fire Protection Engineering Advising and Academic Support website to learn more about requesting an advising appointment and to view sample graduation plans along with degree requirements.

• Course Format: Learning will be primarily asynchronous. Classes will be accessible to students in all time zones and with various work schedules.
• Course Schedule: coming soon!
   

Students pursuing online Fire Protection Engineering courses will follow the University of Maryland Tuition Structure for in-state and out-of-state tuition. Please note that tuition differs based upon if you are attending full-time or part-time. Students who are only pursuing online courses do not need to pay mandatory fees.

Scholarships are available for Fire Protection Engineering students! If you want to learn more, contact an Academic Advisor with any questions.
