  1. Students should take Chem 109, 5 cr.; students with inadequate preparation in high school chemistry may substitute Chem 103 and Chem 104, for a total of 9 credits. Three credits of Chem 103/Chem 104, may be counted as Technical Electives credits.

  2. Students who were not able to take INTEREGR 160 (EPD 160) as freshmen may, with the approval of their advisor, substitute 3 credits of electives from courses offered in the College of Engineering or in the Departments of Chemistry, Computer Sciences, Mathematics, and Physics.

  3. Students may substitute Phys 201, 5 cr., for EMA 201, 3 cr., with the approval of his/her advisor.

  4. Computer Science 310 is an acceptable substitute for NE (NEEP) 271.
