Academic Advising

The College is committed to maintaining high academic standards, which is why undergraduate students must attain Engineering Standing before enrolling in upper division courses.

The first two years of a program’s curriculum are considered to be lower division while the remaining two years are considered the upper division. For the most part, upper division engineering courses are those with course numbers in the 3000’s and 4000’s. In addition to the stated prerequisites and unless otherwise noted in the catalog, students must apply for and be granted Engineering Standing in order to enroll in any upper division Engineering course taught in the College of Engineering. A 2.70 GPA is required to receive engineering standing in the courses noted below.
