Professional Requirement

The SOET Professional Experience requirement is intended to document those experiences which help expose SOET students to the expectations of their professional prior to graduation. This may occur through industrial experience, technical or administrative involvement with community service, military service, et cetera. Approval has been granted for the following experiences. Additional experiences may also satisfy this graduation requirement. Requests for approval should be submitted to the SOET Curriculum Subcommittee Chair for consideration, allowing at least four academic weeks for review and response.

Table 1: Approved Professional Experiences

• Automatic - student participation in this professional experience is already documented through existing means.
• Advisor - advisor reviews student’s experience to determine if it meets the spirit of the Professional Experience requirement.
• Faculty - designated committee reviews student’s experience to determine if it meets the spirit of the Professional Experience requirement
