Substitutions

Stated by the catalog on this program's requirements:

• Students can substitute Engineering Design (GE 1110) and Engineering Problem Solving and Computation (GE 1111) for Cornerstone of Engineering 1 (GE 1501) and Cornerstone of Engineering 2 (GE 1502) .

Possible equivalents for this program beyond the above — dashed means a suggestion, not a rule, and every substitution needs your advisor's approval:

• ENGW 3302 ↔ ENGW 3307 (tier C)
• ENGW 3307 ↔ ENGW 3315 (tier C)
• GE 1110 ↔ GE 1501 (tier A, from a catalog footnote)
• GE 1111 ↔ GE 1502 (tier A, from a catalog footnote)
