Community College students should meet with a counselor as soon as possible to determine the equivalent courses offered at that institution. Students should complete as many as possible of the lower division requirements listed below, prior to transfer.
Lower Division Course Requirements | Community College Course Equivalents | |
Preparation for the Major: | ||
| General Chemistry Equivalent | Chem 215 General Chemistry I: Atomic Structure & Chemical Bonding OR Chem 216 General Chemistry II: Principles of Chemical Reactions | |
| Note: SJSU requires completion of the Chemistry sequence for most majors, however this major only requires completion of one semester equivalent General Chemistry, in lieu of CHEM 1A. | ||
| MATH 030 Calculus I | Math 211 Basic Concepts of Calculus AND Math 212 Calculus II | |
| MATH 031 Calculus II | Math 212 Calculus II AND Math 213 Calculus III | |
| MATH 032 Calculus III | Math 252 Multivariable Calculus II | |
| MATH 133A Ordinary Differential Equations Community College math courses articulated with SJSU's Math 133A will meet course content requirements for the major but will not receive upper division credit. | No Current Equivalent | |
Physics Requirement: | ||
| Note: Students who begin their university experience as freshmen at San José State University will need to take the following Physics series: PHYSICS 70, 71 and 72 (equivalent to PHYSICS 50, 51, 52, 53) at San José State University. All transfer students will be expected to have completed the course equivalents to the Physics series listed below. | ||
| PHYS 050 General Physics/Mechanics | Phys 221 General Physics I | |
| PHYS 051 General Physics/Electricity and Magnetism | Phys 222 General Physics II | |
| PHYS 052 General Physics/Heat and Light | Phys 223 General Physics III | |
| PHYS 053 General Physics/Atomic Physics NOTE: if there is no transfer equivalent for Physics 53 the transfer student will need to complete this requirement at SJSU. | Phys 224 General Physics IV AND Phys 225 General Physics V | |
| OR | ||
| PHYS 070 Mechanics | No Current Equivalent | |
| PHYS 071 Electricity and Magnetism | No Current Equivalent | |
| PHYS 072 Atomic Physics | No Current Equivalent | |
Engineering Rquirements: | ||
| CMPE 046 Computer Engineering I | No Current Equivalent | |
| ENGR 010 Introduction to Engineering | No Current Equivalent | |
| EE 097 Introductory Electrical Engineering Laboratory | No Current Equivalent | |
| EE 098 Introduction to Circuit Analysis | No Current Equivalent | |
| ENGL 001B Composition 2 A "C" or better is required in English 1B (a "C-" is not acceptable). English 1B is required of all Engineering majors. | No Current Equivalent | |
Lower Division General Education (39 semester or 58 quarter units) - some of the courses listed above may be approved for general education credit as well as major preparation at your institution. 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. You may be required to take additional lower division general education courses if you do not provide SJSU WITH A FULL OR PARTIAL CERTIFICATION OF GENERAL EDUCATION upon transfer.
American Institutions Requirement (3-9 semester or 5-15 quarter units) - may be satisfied within the lower division general education requirements.
Physical Education Requirement (2 courses) - at least 2 different activities.
