+ General Education Program (GEP) Requirements: To complete the requirements for graduation and the General Education
Program, various categories of credit hours and co-requisites must be satisfied. NCSU approved GEP course lists for each category
can be found at: http://oucc.dasa.ncsu.edu/general-education-program/. Equivalent UNCW courses that satisfy NCSU GEP
requirements can be found at: http://uncw.edu/preeng/CurrentStudents/currentNCSUGeneralEducation.html.
1
This course satisfies the Chemistry Elective requirement.
A computer programming course is not explicitly required in the BE degree plan, however, in order to take BAE 302 in the first semester Junior
year, it is required as a prerequisite since the prerequisite of BAE 200 has not been met.
3
Courses listed in red will be taken through the NC State College of Engineering Distance Education Program.
4
This course satisfies the Biological Science/Chemistry Elective requirement, but exceeds the credit hour requirement by 1.
5
This course satisfies a BAE Elective requirement. Technically, the approved BAE Elective courses are BAE 322, 361, 371 or 481, however, the
prerequisite of BAE 202 has not been met for BAE 361, BAE 371 is offered in Fall only, and either BAE 322, 361, or 371 must be taken before
taking BAE 451 in the first semester Senior year.
