Program Notes

Students are advised to check transfer requirements at four-year institutions.

• Some institutions require two Chemistry courses for specific engineering programs. CH 110 Principles of Chemistry I and CH 120 Principles of Chemistry II sequence is recommended in such cases.
• Students are encouraged t0 take an additional computer science course from the following list:
• CS 106 Security Awareness
• CS 113 Fundamentals of Information Technology
• CS 120 Programming
• CS 141 Linux System Management
• CS 212 Systems Programming with “C,”
• CS 242 Computer Networks (required at UMass Lowell)
• ET 211 iCREAT II
• Students planning to transfer to Northeastern University Electrical Engineering program are encouraged to take MA 210 Introduction to Linear Algebra

Course Substitutions:

• CO 131 Oral Communications requirement can be substituted for a Humanities elective
• EC 201 Principles of Macroeconomics requirement can be substituted for EC 202 Principles of Microeconomics or another Social Science elective
• CT 100 Critical Thinking requirement can be fulfilled by passing the Critical Thinking Challenge Exam

* Fall only course
** Spring only course

This program qualifies as an Alternative Transfer Agreement (MassTransfer) with select public institutions in Massachusetts. For more information, visit www.mass.edu/masstransfer.
