  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 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.
