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 1A General College Chemistry OR Chem 1B 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 1 Analytical Geometry and Calculus | |
| MATH 031 Calculus II | Math 2 Analytical Geometry & Calculus II | |
| MATH 032 Calculus III | Math 3 Multivariable 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 5 Ordinary Differential Equations 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 8A General Physics I | |
| PHYS 051 General Physics/Electricity and Magnetism | PHYS 8B General Physics II | |
| PHYS 052 General Physics/Heat and Light | PHYS 8C 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 8D General Physics IV | |
| OR | ||
| PHYS 070 Mechanics | PHYS 8A General Physics I | |
| PHYS 071 Electricity and Magnetism | PHYS 8B General Physics II | |
| PHYS 072 Atomic Physics | PHYS 8C General Physics III AND PHYS 8D General Physics IV | |
Engineering Requirements: | ||
| CE 099 Statics | Engr 35 Statics | |
| ENGR 010 Introduction to Engineering | No Current Equivalent | |
| ME 020 Design and Graphics | Engr 22 Engineering Design Graphics | |
| ME 030 Computer Applications | CS 1 Computing Fundamentals I | |
| EE 098 Introduction to Circuit Analysis | Engr 44 Introduction to Circuit Analysis | |
| MATE 025 Introduction to Materials | Engr 45 Materials of Engineering | |
| 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. | Eng 3 Composition and Analysis of Literature OR Eng 4 Critical Thinking and Writing about Literature | |
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.
