Program Notes

• Courses identified as “critical” may affect time to graduation due to prerequisite requirements for subsequent required courses.
• All undergraduate students must take a 3-credit course or its equivalent with a passing grade that covers the founding documents. This course may fulfill any requirement in the program of study. Courses that meet this requirement are listed in the academic bulletin. 
• A student cannot repeat College of Engineering and Computing courses in which a grade of C or better was earned, and no more than four college courses may be repeated in order to satisfy degree requirements.
• The last 25% of the degree must be completed in residence at the University, and at least half of the hours in the major and minor must be taken at the University.
