Notes
- * These courses are generally delivered through the INTO Center and are for Pathway students only. Students must maintain 2.0 GPA per semester to remain in good academic standing.
Students who have an interest in biomedical engineering, civil engineering, electrical and computer engineering, and mechanical engineering would substitute the 1000-level introductory course with chair-recommended alternative course for their major interests.
