NOTES:
(1) These courses may be taken either semester in the first year.
(2) CA = Content Area in General Education (GenEd) Requirements (For new lists of general educational courses,
visit http://geoc.uconn.edu). These courses must include one W course from Content Area (CA) 1, 2 or 4 and
may be taken in any order in the indicated semesters, or at other times depending on other course scheduling.
(3) You must complete two semesters of CE 2010 with satisfactory grade before taking CE 4910W. Therefore, this
course must be completed twice before the last semester.
(4) The professional requirements are satisfied only by 3000-level or higher courses. These courses must be chosen
such that they must include at least one course in four of the following different technical areas: Construction
Management (CE 4210), Environmental/Sanitary (CE 3320 if also taken CE 3610, or CE 4310), Geotechnical
(CE 4510 or CE 4520), Hydraulic/Water Resources (CE 4820 or CE 4810), Structural (CE 4620 or CE 4630),
Surveying/Geodetic (CE 4410), and Transportation (CE 4710). The following courses may also be considered
for remaining professional requirements: CE 4610, CE 4800, CE 3520 or CE 3300 (if both taken), CE 3610 or
CE 3320 (if both taken), or other courses in engineering, mathematics, and/or science.
(5) CHEG 2111 and CHEG 3112 may be substituted for ME 2233.

PROFESSIONAL REQUIRMENTS
The professional requirements are satisfied by fifteen (15) credits of 3000-level or higher courses
in engineering, science or mathematics. Following are specific restrictions on these courses:
Proficiency in 4 CE Areas (12 Credits): All CE students must take one course in each of the
seven technical areas listed in the table below as “Required Courses”. In addition, for the
Professional Requirements, Each student must take a second course from four different of these
areas listed as “Proficiency Courses”. (F) and (S) indicates if the course is typically offered in the
First or Second semester.
