| MATH 042 Discrete Mathematics | Math 245 Discrete Math | |
| 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 | |
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 and 71 (equivalent to PHYSICS 50, 51, and 52) at San José State University. All transfer students will be expected to have completed the course equivalents to the Physics series listed below. | ||

| 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. | Engl 124 Advanced Composition: Critical Reasoning & Writing OR Engl 122 Introduction to Literature | |
| *Please note: Students must complete the following courses with a "C-" or better to graduate: MATH 30 or MATH 30P, MATH 31, MATH 32, PHYS 70 or PHYS 50. | ||
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.
