As a student in the College of Engineering, you must satisfy the following requirements before you can become eligible for candidacy for a bachelor’s degree:
You are responsible for seeing that all of your degree requirements are fulfilled. The following Graduation Requirement Self-Check will help you ensure that all requirements are met.
A maximum of 15 units of Internship Courses (92, 192, or a combination) may be counted toward the 180-unit bachelor’s degree requirement. The acceptability of transfer courses for unit credit is determined by Undergraduate Admissions.
The acceptability of such courses toward specific requirements is determined by the individual college or school.
Regularly approved courses (laboratory, field, or other individual work) done outside of a regular session but under the direction of a department of instruction may be accepted upon the recommendation of the department in partial fulfillment of the residence requirement for the bachelor’s degree. Registration is with the consent of the instructor only.
UC Davis Extension courses are not accepted as part of the university residence requirement.
Once the Entry Level Writing Requirement has been satisfied, there are two distinct composition requirements for engineering students:
Lower-division composition. This requirement can be satisfied by completion of an Advanced Placement English exam with a score of 4 or 5; International Baccalaureate credit for English 3; or completion of certain coursework with a grade of C- or better. Courses allowed vary by major. Please see your program advisor to determine coursework that has been approved for your major.
