Lower Division Course Requirements

Community College Course Equivalents

In order to be successful in this major you must complete the following articulated courses prior to transfer, earning grades of "C" or better on the first attempt. Students who struggle to achieve this should strongly consider selecting a different major.

Preparation for the Major:

General Chemistry Equivalent Transfer Course
(or CHEM 1A taken at SJSU)		Chem 111 General Chemistry
   OR
Chem 112 General Chemistry
Note: This major only requires completion of one semester or two quarters of General Chemistry in lieu of CHEM 1A taken at SJSU.
MATH 030 Calculus IMath 190 Calculus with Analytic Geometry I (*)
   OR
MATH 030P Calculus I with PrecalculusNo Current Equivalent
MATH 031 Calculus IIMath 191 Calculus with Analytic Geometry II (*)
MATH 032 Calculus IIIMath 210 Calculus with Analytic Geometry III
MATH 042 Discrete MathematicsNo Current Equivalent
MATH 123 Differential Equations and Linear Algebra
Community College math courses articulated with SJSU's Math 123 will meet course content requirements for the major but will not receive upper division credit.		No Current Equivalent
PHYS 050 General Physics/MechanicsPhys 201 Physics
PHYS 051 General Physics/Electricity and MagnetismPhys 202 Physics

Lower Division Requirements of the Major:

CMPE 030 Programming Concepts and MethodologyNo Current Equivalent
ENGR 010 Introduction to EngineeringNo Current Equivalent
ME 019 Graphics for EngineersNo Current Equivalent
EE 097 Introductory Electrical Engineering LaboratoryNo Current Equivalent
EE 098 Introduction to Circuit AnalysisNo Current Equivalent
CMPE 050 Object-Oriented Concepts and MethodologyNo Current Equivalent

All students must satisfy the following prerequisite (or equivalent) prior to registering for the WST and 100W courses at SJSU {Academic Senate policy S05-8}.

Once the following course requirement is completed (earning a grade of C or better), students should contact http://testing.sjsu.edu to register for the WST exam at SJSU. Passing the WST prior to your first semester at SJSU will prevent delays in registering for upper division courses:
ENGL 001B Composition 2
A "C" or better is required in English 1B (A grade of "C-" is not acceptable).		Engl 102 Reading & Composition
or
2nd English Composition Equivalent Transfer CourseENGL 103 Composition & Critical Thinking
   OR
ENGL 103H Composition and Critical Thinking
   OR
ENGL 104 Advanced Rhetoric: The Classical Essay
A course articulated to SJSU's English 1B is recommended, however any course approved for the IGETC second semester English composition area would be accepted to meet this requirement (a grade of "C" or better is required).

LDTP Approved Courses (*)

The following Citrus Community College courses are approved for the following LDTP course descriptors shown on the right.
Math 190Single Variable Calculus I
Math 191Single Variable Calculus II
LDTP courses are acceptable "in lieu of" each other.
LDTP courses are not necessarily "equivalent" or "identical" in content.

IMPORTANT TRANSFER INFORMATION:

Prior to transferring to San José State University all transfers must earn at least 60 transferable semester units (90 quarter). Within those 60 semester/90 quarter units students are strongly encouraged to complete the following:

1. General Education Requirements:
Complete all the CSU GE Breadth requirements at the community college (39 semester units/58 quarter units). The approved courses for each area can be found at www.ASSIST.org under the link "CSU GE-Breadth Certification Courses" for your college. Many of these courses can be double counted to meet the major requirements shown above, so choose your courses wisely. Please see your college counselor/advisor to review your general education in order to receive FULL OR PARTIAL CERTIFICATION PRIOR TO TRANSFER to San José State University.

2. Second Semester English Composition:
Complete the second semester English composition course (or equivalent) as it is a prerequisite to registering for the WST and 100W courses at SJSU. Students must earn a grade of "C" or better in this course (a "C-" is not acceptable). Approved courses can be found above within the lower division major requirements. Be sure to select this course as part of your CSU GE-Breadth 39 semester unit requirements. Once this course is complete, students are encouraged to take the WST exam at SJSU to avoid delays in enrollment for other SJSU required courses. To register for the WST contact our Testing office at testing.sjsu.edu.

3. American Institutions Requirement (US 1, US 2, and US 3 must be completed):
This requirement is normally 2 courses and can be taken as part of your CSU GE-Breadth 39 semester unit requirements (GE Area D and sometimes Area C). The approved courses can be found at www.ASSIST.org under the link "CSU US History, Constitution, and American Ideals Courses" for your college.

4. Physical Education Requirement:
Two courses are required and must include at least two different activities. Completion of these courses will clear the graduation requirement at SJSU.

5. Lower Division Major Course Requirements:
Complete as many of the lower division courses required for the major as possible. Many of these courses may be double counted as part of the CSU GE-Breadth 39 semester unit requirements. These requirements are shown above.
