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:
- GE 1110 ↔ GE 1501 (tier A, from a catalog footnote)
- GE 1111 ↔ GE 1502 (tier A, from a catalog footnote)
