Notes
1 The Humanities/Social Sciences (H/SS) requirement includes two approved reading and composition courses and four additional approved courses, with which a number of specific conditions must be satisfied. Reading and Composition “A” and “B” must be completed by no later than the end of the sophomore year. The remaining courses may be taken at any time during the program. See engineering.berkeley.edu/hss for complete details and a list of approved courses.
2 Bio 1B or CE 70
3 Chem 4A is intended for students majoring in Chemistry or a closely-related field.
4 CE 11 or CE 70. If CE 70 was taken in the freshman year students must take CE 11. <3> indicates this requirement is taken in either the fall or spring (not both). CE 11 is offered in Spring. CE 70 in Fall.
5 Choose one of: Chem 1B, 4B; Physics 7C
6 Choose four from this category: CE 103, 111, 120, 155, 167, 175, 191
7 Choose one from this category: CE 105, 112, 122N plus 122L, 123N plus 123L, 153, 177, 180, 186. Note that for the courses listed in this category that are 4 units, one of the four units can be applied toward the 15 unit engineering electives requirement.
8 Engineering electives must include at least 15 additional units of upper-division technically oriented engineering coursework offered in the College of Engineering or in Chemical Engineering. The 15 units of engineering electives cannot include: any course taken on a P/NP basis; BioE 100; ChemE 185; CS 195, H195; Des Inv courses (except 190E); Engin 125, 157AC; IEOR 172, 185, 186, 190 series, 191, 192, 195; ME 106, 190K, 191AC, 191K. Students may receive up to three units of engineering elective credit for work on a research project in CE H194 (Honors Undergraduate Research). Students who take CE 167 for Elective Core and then take Engin 120 for engineering electives will receive only 2 units toward engineering electives.
9 Choose one of: E 115; ME 40, 104
10Junior transfer admits are exempt from completing CE 92.
* A minimum of 120 units is required for graduation.
