Major in Electrical Engineering Program-wip

OVERVIEW

Electrical Engineering: The bachelor of science in electrical engineering degree program prepares its graduates for a successful career in the rapidly evolving and intellectually challenging field of electrical engineering. The Department requires its graduates to develop a strong understanding of the relevant mathematics, computer programming and natural science concepts needed by practicing electrical engineers. Graduates must demonstrate an ability to apply this knowledge in several fundamental areas of electrical engineering, including communication systems, control systems, digital signal processing, digital systems, electromagnetics, microelectronics, and power systems. They also must demonstrate sufficient knowledge and technical skills needed to complete a major design experience and to function as a member of a multi-disciplinary team.

ABET
The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) requires that all students graduating from an ABET-accredited program meet certain course requirements. Completion of the A.A. degree will not meet these requirements. Prospective majors should select courses after consulting an advisor.

Civil Engineering Admission Requirements

Requirements for Progression to the Upper-Division:
To be admitted, students must complete at least 52 hours of credit with an FSU GPA of a 2.00, including at least one-half of the required hours in the General Education program, including all of the Area I English and math. In addition, the following requirements must be met: a grade of "C minus" or better in MAC2311. Students must not be in violation of the pre-engineering program requirements.

FSU Course Code	FSU Course Title	Hours	Min. Grade
MAC2311	Calculus I	4	C-
MAC2312	Calculus II	4	C-
MAC2313	Calculus III	5	C-
MAP2302	Ordinary Differential Equations	3	C-
PHY2048C	General Physics I with Calculus and Lab	5	C-
PHY2049C	General Physics II	5	C-
CHM1045	General Chemistry I	3	C-
CHM1045L	General Chemistry I Lab	1	C-
EGN1004L	Pre-Engineering Lab	1	C-
Notes

Only permitted 1 repeat attempt for either MAC2311, MAC2312, PHY2048C OR EGN1004L.
f any of the above courses are repeated, the student must complete all Pre-Engineering courses (excluding EGN1004L) prior to transferring to the College of Engineering.
Transfer students who will earn an AA or have more than 60 hours of transfer credit prior to enrollment at the College must have completed at least Calculus I. We prefer that AA transfer students have the majority of the Pre-Engineering courses completed before arriving.
Each applicant is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. FSU generally accepts non-remedial, non-vocational coursework taken at accredited institutions for at least elective credit. After admission, the Office of Undergraduate Studies and your academic department will determine how your credit(s) will transfer.
