- Students who transfer into the program do not go back and take C&PE 127. They need to make up the hours with MSEHS (math, science, engineering, humanities, or social science).
- Students with credit for ENGL 101 do not need to make up the hours with another course.
- Students who fulfill Goal 4.2 by international status or an experience need to make up the 3 hours with 3 hours of MSEHS (math, science, engineering, humanities, or social science).
- HSES and other activity courses do not count for hours towards graduation.
- Students will satisfy KU CORE Goal 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 3H, 3N, 5.1 and 6 with completion of the math, science, communication, English, and engineering courses required for the degree. Students must select approved courses to satisfy the Goal 2.2, 3S, 4.1, and 4.2 requirements.
- Students will not graduate without meeting the requirements for the KU CORE.
- C&PE courses are only offered 1 time a year in the semester in which they are shown. Failure to take the Math, Science, English, and C&PE courses in the order shown may delay graduation by at least 1 yr.
- Students must complete and earn a cumulative 2.0 GPA in C&PE 211 , C&PE 221, C&PE 325, and C&PE 327 to progress to C&PE 511, C&PE 527, C&PE 528, C&PE 618, C&PE 619, or junior year C&PE courses. The cumulative GPA is calculated using the highest grade in each course.
- Students must complete and earn a cumulative 2.0 GPA in C&PE 511, C&PE 522, C&PE 527, C&PE 528, C&PE 618 to progress on to the senior year courses C&PE 624, C&PE 627, C&PE 625, C&PE 617 and C&PE 628. The cumulative GPA is calculated using the highest grade in each course.
