Specific Requirements for Preparation for Professional Schools
Basic Engineering Requirements
The student who expects to enter a school of engineering should declare intent
immediately and be assigned an engineering adviser. Early engineering advisement is
essential. The mathematics sequence should be started with the first enrollment at a course
level determined by the mathematics background of the student. The student should deviate
from the following list of specific courses only if recommended by the engineering advisor.
Requirements for a degree vary by area of specialization and institution.
