Notes


*Satisfies a University Core Requirement

Students must earn a C- or better in all CGT courses.

120 semester credits required for bachelor of Science degree.

2.0 Graduation GPA required for Bachelor of Science degree.

Purdue Policy states that a student may attempt a course no more than (3) times. An attempt is defined as all courses displayed on a student’s transcript including, but not limited to A,B,C,D,F,W,WF,I,IF.

Each student must have 32 credit hours of 30000 or 40000 level Purdue courses for graduation. 

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.

The myPurduePlan powered by DegreeWorks is the knowledge source for specific requirements and completion.
