First Year Engineering Program Requirements

Multidisciplinary Engineering Program Requirements

Notes

• * Can substitute with approved alternative FYE courses: i.e. ENGR 141/142, etc.
• ** Satsifies a non-departmental Major Course Requirement.
• 2.0 Graduation GPA required for Bachelor of Science in Engineering Degree.
• Consultation required with Academic Advisor to complete Third Semester to End of coursework.

Critical Course

The ♦ course is considered critical.

In alignment with the Degree Map Guidance for Indiana’s Public Colleges and Universities, published by the Commission for Higher Education (pursuant to HEA 1348-2013), a Critical Course is identified as “one that a student must be able to pass to persist and succeed in a particular major.  Students who want to be nurses, for example, should know that they are expected to be proficient in courses like biology in order to be successful.  These would be identified by the institutions for each degree program”. 

Disclaimer

The student is ultimately responsible for knowing and completing all degree requirements.
