For those who have completed the Freshman Pre-Engineering courses we recommend that you follow the following schedule. It is tailored for those who are going to transfer to any of the Colleges of Engineering at a North Carolina System University.
Also, make sure that you have applied for admission to a college of engineering by early November and have arranged to have your transcript sent. Given below are three elective lists (designated by *, ** and ***) applicable to those transferring to NCSU.
FALL SEM HRS SPRING SEM HRS
MAT 2130 4 MAT 3130 3
CHE 1101/1110 4 CHE 1102/1120/ELECT 1* 4or3
ENG/HS 1101/1102 3 ADV ENG/HS** 3
ECO/ELECT 2*** 3 ADV ECO/ELECT 3 3
ACTIVITY/WELLNESS 1or2 ELECT 3 3
15or16 16or15
* CHE 1102/1120 should be taken only by those applying for Aerospace,
Biological, Chemical, Environmental, Material Science or Nuclear
Engineering. For all other engineering disciplines you may take
an elective course from the Science, Technology in Society and
Culture area or the Philosophy, Religion and Visually Performing
Arts area. We recommend P&R 3600. (see the NCSU Pre-Engineering Course List)
** Depending on whether you choose the LITERATURE or HISTORY sequence, you must take the advanced level course in that same area and time/discipline period.
*** For all engineering disciplines except Biological, Environmental and Computer Engineering or Computer Science, then we recommend PHY 2010, otherwise you should take an elective from the SOCIAL SCIENCE area. We recommend ECO 2030. If you take PHY 2010, then we recommend PHY 2020 or ECO 2030 during the Spring term. (See the reverse side for specific courses in each area.)
NOTE: Before finishing any curriculum at NCSU, one must complete a non-english speaking culture course. In addition one must complete a foreign requirement. For more course details see the NCSU Pre-Engineering Course List.
