Notes
* A minimum of 120 units is required for graduation.
1CHEM 4A is for students majoring in chemistry or a closely related field. CHEM 1A and 1AL, or CHEM 4A are prerequisites for BIOLOGY 1A.
2Engineering breadth: 9 units must be completed from the following list BIOENG 10, 102; CIVENG 11, C30, 60, 70, 126, 132, 155; DESINV 15; EECS 16A, 16B; ENGIN 11, 26, 29 (or 25+27), 40; MATSCI 45, 45L, 111; MECENG 40, C85, 126, 132.
3The Humanities/Social Sciences (H/SS) requirement includes two approved Reading & Composition (R&C) courses and four additional approved courses, with which a number of specific conditions must be satisfied. R&C courses must be taken for a letter grade (C- or better required). The first half (R&C Part A) must be completed by the end of the freshman year; the second half (R&C Part 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.
4Students must acquire fluent programming skills as demonstrated by completion of coursework in a high-level language such as Python, C, C++ or Java. This requirement may be completed by taking COMPSCI 61A or COMPSCI C8 or equivalent. The COMPSCI 9xx series self-paced courses at UC Berkeley are intended for those already skilled as programmers in a high-level language to learn a second language and thus are not appropriate for meeting this requirement. Junior transfer admits who have completed a programming course of 3 units or more in Python, C, C++, or Java have fulfilled this requirement.
5INDENG 172 is an alternative course for STAT 134 or STAT 140. In semesters when INDENG 172 is offered, it is recommended that students take INDENG 172 instead of STAT 134 or 140. Students will receive unit credit for only one of these courses.
6Students must take a minimum of six courses from the list below:
- INDENG 115 – Industrial and Commercial Data Systems
- INDENG 130 – Methods of Manufacturing Improvement
- INDENG 142 – Introduction to Machine Learning and Data Analytics
- INDENG 150 – Production Systems Analysis
- INDENG 151 – Service Operations Design and Analysis
- INDENG 153 – Logistics Network Design and Supply Chain Management
- INDENG 164 – Introduction to Optimization Modeling
- INDENG 166 – Decision Analysis
- INDENG 169 – Integer Optimization
- INDENG 170 – Industrial Design and Human Factors
- INDENG 171 – Technology Firm Leadership
7Free electives can be any technical or non-technical course, a course of your interest offered by any department. There are no restrictions.
Note: INDENG 95, 185, 186, 190 series courses, 191, 192 and 195 cannot be used to fulfill any technical or engineering units or courses.
