GENERAL ENGINEERING (GE) REQUIREMENTS FOR
SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
1.
To complete the General Engineering requirements and enter Software Engineering, each
student must complete the following seven core courses:
Engl 1130
GE 1000
GE 1030
CS 1430
Math 2640
Math 2730
Math 2740
Freshman Composition
Introduction to Engineering
Introduction to Engineering Projects
Programming in C++
Calculus & Analytic Geometry I
Discrete Mathematics
Calculus & Analytic Geometry II
3 cr
1 cr
1 cr
3 cr
4 cr
3 cr
4 cr
2.
Students who complete their core courses must earn a 2.30 in those core courses to gain
entry into the Software Engineering Program.
3.
Each student must earn a grade of ‘C’ or better in Math 2640 and Math 2740.
4.
A student must successfully complete the GE program requirements before accumulating
60 or more credits at UWP. Each repetition of a given course will be counted toward the
60 credit limit. With the exception of the seven GE core courses, credits earned at UWP
prior to admission to GE will not be counted toward the 60 credit limit.
5.
GE students may take no more than nine credits of engineering courses numbered at the
2000 level or higher.
GRADE REQUIREMENTS FOR SOFTWARE ENGINEERING (SE)
1.
SE majors must earn a C or better in all required Software Engineering, Computer
Science, and Electrical Engineering courses.
2.
SE majors must earn a D or better in all co-requisites, unless otherwise stipulated by the
offering department. For example, a C or better is required in Physics 2530 in order to
proceed to Physics 2640. However, a D in Physics 2640 would satisfy the SE
requirement for that course.
3.
An SE major may repeat any given Software Engineering or Electrical Engineering
course at most once.
4.
SE majors must also satisfy academic standards set by the University and the College of
EMS.
