Requirements

Required courses for engineering students are grouped into three “Cores” — the Renaissance Core, the Science/Math Core and the Engineering Core. In addition, each track has its own specific requirements. All courses are 1.0 course credit unless otherwise specified. Students electing the mechanical engineering concentration are required to complete 35.5 course credits for graduation. Students electing the electrical or chemical engineering concentration are required to complete 36 course credits for graduation.
