The AU Bulletin lists the University Core Curriculum requirements for students in the College of Engineering. Students must complete a sequence in either Literature or History. Because of the discipline specific requirements for the Humanities courses, it is recommended that a History sequence be completed in the Social Sciences courses.

2

Students take the C-programming version of COMP 1200, or they may opt for the 3 credit course COMP 1210 Fundamentals of Computing I. Only two credits of COMP 1210 will count in place of COMP 1200, and the third hour may count toward free elective credit.

3

Ethics course options: PHIL 1020 Introduction to Ethics, PHIL 1030 Ethics and the Health Sciences, PHIL 1040 Business Ethics, and PHIL 1110 Ethical and Conceptual Foundations of Science.

4

Technical elective is chosen from an approved list of MATH/SCIENCE, ELEC, and other College of Engineering electives.

5

For students completing the ROTC program, the first ROTC course may be used as the 3-hour free elective, and the second ROTC course may be substituted for ENGR 2200.

6

Students accepted into a Specialization will replace ENGR 2100, ENGR 2200, and the two ELEC electives with elective courses approved for the Specialization. See the Department Advisor for details.

ELEC and Technical Elective: see adviser for approved course listing.
