College of Engineering
Undergrad: Curriculum Organization
(Catalog page 186)

The undergraduate curriculum in each engineering major consists of a core of required courses, a group of technical elective courses, and a group of breadth requirement courses. The core group includes courses in mathematics, chemistry, physics, computer science, and engineering. The technical electives courses allow students to investigate the sciences in more depth and to develop a concentration within their engineering discipline. Most of the breadth requirement courses are taken from the humanities and social sciences to provide a well-rounded education. The College’s breadth requirements are described in the following section. Additional requirements specified by individual engineering departments are given in the appropriate departmental sections.
