Possible employment areas for chemical engineer include chemical, environmental, biomedical, biochemical
design, food, polymer, project, process, research, & materials engineer;
civil engineer includes structural,
transportation & pipeline, environmental, highway, water resource, construction, & geotechnical engineer;
electrical engineer includes electrical,
computer, analog circuit design, applications, product development systems, and digital circuit design engineer; industrial engineer includes industrial, manufacturing, production,
systems, applications, and systems
analyst engineer; mechanical engineer includes electrical, gas turbine,
nuclear, solar, environment & transportation, aerospace, solid waste,
offshore & arctic, plant, textiles, computer engineering.
For more information please visit the
Occupational Outlook Handbook website.
While academic advisors, faculty and staff
provide significant academic planning and
related assistance to students, completion
of all degree requirements, and the process
of monitoring progress to that end, is ultimately the responsibility of the student.

Entrance Requirements
All areas require a minimum overall GPA of 2.0 for admission. Students must earn a minimum grade of “C” or better in MAC 1311; MAC
2312; CHM 1045; CHM 1046 (for chemical/biomedical engineering majors only); and PHY 2048C for civil, computer, electrical, and industrial
engineering majors. A single repeated attempt in only one of these four courses is permitted with no more than one grade of “C” allowed.
Chemical and biomedical engineering require BSC 2010; civil and environmental majors are strongly encouraged to complete BSC 2010.
Check the FSU College of Engineering website for details on each major.
All first time in college (Fall 2014 and beyond) students are required to successfully complete two years of the same foreign language in high school or two semesters of
the same foreign language at the college level before the associate degree is awarded. Home School students must demonstrate competency through competency testing.
FSU requires competency in oral communications for graduation. If students took a speech course in high school or were members of a debate team, they may exempt this requirement during the FSU admissions process. Students may take SPC 2608 at Chipola to satisfy this requirement.

Twelve (12) hours of Gordon Rule Writing are required. In addition to ENC 1101 and ENC 1102, choose from the following courses to complete the 12 hour requirement:
AML 2010, AML 2020, ENC 2210, ENL 2012, ENL 2022, HUM 1020, HUM 2020, SPT 2521, or ENC 1133.
FSU requires an international/diversity course for graduation. The Chipola courses which meet a social science requirement at Chipola and a diversity requirement at FSU
include ASH 1044, GEA 2001, GEA 2002, REL 2300, and SYG 1010. It is strongly recommended that one of these courses be completed before earning the AA degree.
Chemical requires ECO 2023; Biomedical requires ECO 2023 and PSY 2012.
This course is required for chemical engineering majors only, but is strongly recommended for all others. Check specific major on FSU website.
Choose one of the following: ARH 1000, MUL 2010, THE 1000.
