Program Notes
- "Required Related (Cognate Area of Study) Courses" are required to meet ETAC of ABET criteria 1, 2, 3 and 5.
- MAT 181 (College Algebra, 3 credits) and MAT 191 (College Trigonometry, 3 credits) may be substituted for MAT 199, if math placement test does not permit direct entry into Pre-Calculus or if student desires a less intense math coverage.
- Students must complete 42 credits in upper-division coursework (300- and 400-level courses).
