College of Engineering - Curriculum Guide

General Engineering

The goal of the general engineering program is to provide students with flexible, interdisciplinary opportunities to study basic engineering concepts plus courses in areas related to their interests, such as business or science.

This program is designed for students interested in engineering-related professions rather than a specific engineering discipline. It is highly elective and enables students to tailor their studies to meet their particular objectives. A general engineering background offers the foundation for advanced study in such areas as medicine, law, or business, particularly for those interested in the more technical aspects or applications of those professions. Students who complete an adviser-approved program receive an unspecified Bachelor of Science degree from the College of Engineering. See course descriptions for more information.
