Prerequisites
Modified majors are expected to have a basic understanding of calculus, physics, chemistry, and computer science. First-year students interested in the major should take the placement test in mathematics.
Unless otherwise prohibited, prerequisites may be taken under the Non-Recording Option.
Computer Science
2 courses.
- COSC 1: Introduction to Programming and Computation
– or ENGS 20: Introduction to Scientific Computing - COSC 10: Problem Solving via Object-Oriented Programming
Mathematics
3 courses.
- MATH 3: Introduction to Calculus
- MATH 8: Calculus of Functions of One and Several Variables
- MATH 13: Calculus of Vector-Valued Functions
Physics

Culminating Experience
Engineering Sciences majors complete a culminating experience, which is part of a course (either as one of the two electives or as an additional course). Normally taken during the senior year, the course is chosen from the following options below, and for modified majors, must be justified as part of a larger unified coherent program of study.
Thesis
Design Project
- ENGS 89: Engineering Design Methodology and Project Initiation
- Taken as part of the two-course design sequence ENGS 89/90.
- May count toward both AB and BE degrees.
- Prior to enrollment in ENGS 89, at least 6 engineering sciences courses must be completed:
