Be on top of your Degree

It is your responsibility to be on top of your degree requirements and graduate on time.

Transfer students have to graduate within three years.

Follow Program of Study.

Contact counselor for any assistance. Meeting with an Academic Counselor at least once a year is strongly recommended.

.

Academic Framework▪ Engineering coursework is built upon a foundation of math and science.▪ Interdependency of knowledge prerequisites and co-requisites required▪ Emphasis on retaining knowledge▪ Study to learn, not to pass the class.

Strategies for Success

Treat school as a full-time job.

Go to office hours to ask questions, do not get behind.

Be realistic about the amount of work you can get done in a given period.

Study 3 hours per week for any one unit you enroll.

More recommendations can be found in your Engineering Study Guidelines handout.
