Curriculum Requirements Program-Specific Core Curriculum (GE) Courses Engineering Physics majors automatically meet the Core Curriculum requirement of 6 credits of science and mathematics. The foreign language requirement is met by two years in high school or 4 credits of college foreign language. Students in the engineering 3/2 program sequence are exempt from the Core Curriculum requirement in literature and the last semester residency requirement. Program Courses CHEM 105 General Chemistry I
1. Illustrate intellectual curiosity and devise strategies for independent inquiry (ULO 1). 2. Display the variety of ways in which the Christian faith is in dialogue with literary and rhetorical texts (ULO 2). 3. Analyze texts from historical, cultural, religious, and/or theoretical perspectives (ULO 1). 4. Construct clear and persuasive arguments using textual evidence (ULO 3). 5. Recognize the aesthetic and formal qualities of literary and rhetorical texts (ULO 1). 6. Practice the craft of writing in a variety of genres appropriate to audience (ULO 3). Each Program Learning Outcome (PLO) listed above references at least one of the University Learning Outcomes (ULO 1, 2, 3), which may be found in the General Information (p. 6) section of this catalog. Requirements International Students All students requesting transfer of credits from countries where English is not the primary language must provide the following to be assessed by the English Department prior to approval of credits: sample writings, a course description from the University's catalog, a syllabus of the course, writings from the course and transcript. Final decision will be made by the department chair. English Language Learners (EL) All students for whom English is not a primary language may count 12 credits of EL coursework (any 12 credits from ENGL 011–034) toward graduation. For students pursuing the B.A. degree, the 12 credits of EL will satisfy the Core Curriculum (GE) foreign language requirement.
