Curricular Experiments

The process of curriculum innovation at Olin College means that curricular experiments are going on during most academic years. Typically, these experiments are courses that students opt-in to and serve as designated alternatives for requirements in the curriculum.

Beginning in the 2015 – 16 academic year, a new sequence of courses will be offered to create a coherent approach to developing engineering analysis skills. This is a three year experiment and will allow students in the classes of 2019, 2020 and 2021 to opt in to this sequence of courses which will serve as designated alternatives to Linearity 1, Linearity 2, Mechanics, Signals and Systems, and Dynamics.
