BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN CIVIL ENGINEERING
TRANSFER STUDENTS AND CREDITS
Potential transfer students should refer to the University guidelines in this catalog. The Department of Civil Engineering has established additional requirements and interpreted the University guidelines as indicated in this section.
The 128-credit curriculum is fulfilled through a combination of transfer credits, credits by examination and courses taken while at Polytechnic. Transfer credits in mathematics, chemistry, physics, humanities and social sciences are evaluated by the Office of Academic Affairs with the guidance of faculty from appropriate departments. Transfer credits in civil engineering and other technical areas are evaluated by the faculty of the Department of Civil Engineering.
The length of time for a transfer student to complete the BS in Civil Engineering depends upon three factors:
1. The total number of transfer credits awarded
2. The particular courses required to complete degree requirements
3. Enrollment status (part-time or full-time)
Transfer Notes:
Transfer students should be aware that they can be awarded transfer credits for courses only in which a C grade or better has been earned and then only for courses that are applicable towards the BS in Civil Engineering as described in this catalog.
There is a residency requirement that must also be fulfilled. To earn a BS, all students must complete a minimum of 30 credits of course work at Polytechnic at the junior or senior level (courses numbered CE 3XXX or CE 4XXX). These credits must include the design project, CE 4812 and CE 4823.
