Note:
Complete 3 semester credit hours to satisfy the Diversity Requirement with a minimum grade of “C.” The Diversity Requirement does not increase the number of credits required for graduation. The course used to fulfill the Diversity Requirement may also be used to fulfill three credits of Core requirements in Communications, Social & Behavioral Sciences, Humanities or Distributed Requirements, providing the diversity course is listed as fulfilling Core requirements in Communications, Social & Behavioral Sciences or the Humanities. If the course does not fall under any of the Core groups, the course used to fulfill the Diversity Requirement may count as an elective.
* You should seek the help of an academic advisor in selecting your electives. Selecting the wrong electives may lengthen the time it takes to earn your Bachelor’s degree after you transfer. Depending on your transfer school and the engineering sub-discipline you plan to major in there are a number of different courses you should take. You will likely need to take at least one the courses below and there may be others that will help. Also, the elective that you need might not be offered every semester, so it may make sense to take it your third semester. Again, please talk to your academic advisor.
MAT 219 - Calculus III Credits: 4
PHY 223 - Classical Physics II Credits: 6
EGR 166 - Engr Graphics/Concptl Design Credits: 4
