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 201A General College Chemistry OR Chem 201B General College Chemistry | |
| 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 265A Analytical Geometry & Calculus | |
| MATH 031 Calculus II | Math 265B Analytical Geometry & Calculus | |
| MATH 032 Calculus III | Math 283 Calculus | |
| 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. | MATH 287 Linear Analysis CONTENT CREDIT ONLY | |
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 208A Principles of Physics | |
| PHYS 051 General Physics/Electricity and Magnetism | PHYS 208B Principles of Physics | |
| PHYS 052 General Physics/Heat and Light | PHYS 208C Modern Physics | |
| 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. | No Current Equivalent | |
| OR | ||
| PHYS 070 Mechanics | No Current Equivalent | |
| PHYS 071 Electricity and Magnetism | No Current Equivalent | |
| PHYS 072 Atomic Physics | No Current Equivalent | |
Engineering Requirements: | ||
| CE 099 Statics | Engr 250 Engineering Statics | |
| ENGR 010 Introduction to Engineering | No Current Equivalent | |
| ME 020 Design and Graphics | Engr 226 Engineering Drawing I OR Engr 227 Engineering Drawing 2 | |
| ME 030 Computer Applications | No Current Equivalent | |
| EE 098 Introduction to Circuit Analysis | No Current Equivalent | |
| MATE 025 Introduction to Materials | Engr 246 Materials Engineering AND Engr 246L Materials Engineering Lab | |
| ENGL 001B Composition 2 A "C" or better is required in English 1B (a "C-" is not acceptable). English 1B is required for all Engineering majors. | No Current Equivalent | |
To qualify for a baccalaureate degree in Aerospace Engineering, a student must receive a grade of C- or better in all courses required for the program (Major and Technical Electives). | ||
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.
