College of Engineering Minors
In the College of Engineering, prior to enrolling in a minor a student must consult with the appropriate department chairperson to select the courses most appropriate to his/her background and career goals. Minors are open to students who have completed; mathematics through differential equations; a year of physics and at least one course in Chemistry along with the prerequisites required for the individual engineering courses. All students obtaining a minor in Engineering are required to obtain a GPA of at least 2.0 in the minor with no more than one grade less than C-. Engineering students cannot receive a minor offered by their major department.
ECE students looking for engineering minors offered by other Engineering departments should consult the Undergraduate Catalog for more information.
