Academic Policy – Computer Engineering

Admission to the college is necessary before enrolling in nonengineering 300 and 400 level courses. Minimum college admission requirements are:

  • a minimum of 32 earned semester credit hours.
  • a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00 (C).

Contact the department for application procedures.

During spring semester of the sophomore year, students should submit an application form for admission to the computer engineering program. Admission to the program is selective and, following applications to the department, subject to approval from the faculty. The department makes a special effort to accommodate transfer students.

Only students admitted to the program are permitted to enroll in upper–division engineering courses. No transfer credits are allowed for upper–division engineering courses except by faculty review followed by written permission.

Before being accepted into the program and admitted to 300–level engineering courses (typically in the fall semester), a student must complete a minimum of 48 semester credits including the following:

  • General Physics (calculus–based) (10 credits)
  • Calculus and Differential Equations, Probability & Statistics (15 credits)
  • Electrical Engineering Circuit Analysis I and II (including laboratory) (7 credits)
  • Chemistry (5 credits)
  • English Composition (4 credits)
  • Computer Sciences (Java and C++) (6 credits)

A cumulative GPA of 2.5 for all science and math courses must have been achieved for program admittance. Grades must be 'C' or better for courses to be accepted.
