A, B, C, or D. Courses listed in the guide are options for a four-year course plan. GE: Engineering students are encouraged to satisfy GE G and GE H with a course that also satisfies a Core Literacy. GE H may be satisfied by AP/IB. Additionally, your GESM course should be taken in categories A, B, C, or D only. See page 17 for more information and consult your advisor for detailed assistance. ##: Completing ARCH 214bg will satisfy the GE A requirement. OPTIONAL ELECTIVES: Consult with your academic advisor to explore optional elective courses. These courses are not required. CE 215, 225, AND 309: Minimum grade of ā€œCā€ is required. ARCH 205ABL, ARCH 305ABL, AND ARCH 405ABL: Minimum grade of ā€œCā€ is required in order to continue in the Building Science sequence. ADVANCED COMPUTING ELECTIVES: CE 423 OR ENE 440 MATH 125: For students starting with Calculus 1, Advanced Computing Elective will be waived for your requirements.
