Undeclared Major with Intended Engineering Interest

Effective May 17, 2024 FYS1020 and CAR0010 will no longer be requirements in our undergraduate programs.

The Undeclared major with intended engineering interest is for the student who desires an engineering major but needs additional mathematics preparation before direct entrance into an engineering degree program. Students who successfully complete the requirements to matriculate into an engineering program after two semesters are enrolled into a B.S. program in either Computer Engineering, Electronics Engineering or Biomedical Engineering in their second year of study. Requirements are outlined in the “Pathway to Engineering Contract for Success” and include advising, tutoring, and achievement of a 2.75 GPA in engineering, math and science courses during their first two semesters.

Students that do not place in MATH1040 Calculus I will need to take an extra course(s), MATH1020 Fundamentals of Algebra and/or MATH1030 Precalculus, as prerequisite; depending on placement. If needed this may count as an A&S or Free elective.

Note: Students must pass MATH0010 Pre-Algebra or have equivalent placement scores to enroll in required math courses.
