Application information

Entry requirements

Admission is to the College of Engineering, not to the individual major: first-year students enter without a declared major and are urged to declare by the start of their 3rd term; undeclared students cannot register for a 4th term without a plan to declare. Engineering degree programs share common requirements of 16 credits of math, 15 credits of science, 16 credits of Intellectual Breadth and 8 credits of first-year engineering courses, plus 9 to 15 credits of general electives. A grade of C or higher is required in science, engineering and mathematics courses for some programmes (see EECS).
