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: | ||
| CHEM 1A and CHEM 1B General Chemistry Sequence must be complete. | Chem 210 General Chemistry I AND Chem 220 General Chemistry II Equivalent only if sequence is complete | |
| MATH 030 Calculus I | Math 251 Calculus & Analytical Geometry I | |
| MATH 031 Calculus II | Math 252 Calculus & Analytical Geometry II | |
| MATH 032 Calculus III | Math 253 Calculus & Analytical Geometry III | |
| 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 275 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 070 and 071 (equivalent to PHYSICS 050, 051, 052) 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 250 Physics with Calculus I | |
| PHYS 051 General Physics/Electricity and Magnetism | Phys 260 Physics with Calculus II | |
| PHYS 052 General Physics/Heat and Light | Phys 270 Physics with Calculus III | |
| OR | ||
| PHYS 070 Mechanics | No Current Equivalent | |
| PHYS 071 Electricity and Magnetism | No Current Equivalent | |
Engineering Requirements: | ||
| CE 099 Statics | No Current Equivalent | |
| ENGR 010 Introduction to Engineering | No Current Equivalent | |
| EE 098 Introduction to Circuit Analysis | No Current Equivalent | |
| MATE 025 Introduction to Materials | No Current Equivalent | |
| MATE majors must also complete MATE 025 with a C- or better in order to enroll in the Junior Core. | ||
| ENGL 001B Composition 2 A "C" or better is required in English 1B (a "C-" is not acceptable). English 001B is required of all Engineering majors. | Engl 110 Composition & Literature & Critical Thinking OR Engl 165 Critical Thinking & Advanced Composition | |
| Note: The Lower Division Core (LD Core) must be satisfied with a GPA of 2.0 or better in order to graduate. The following portion of the Lower Division Core must be satisfied with course grades of C- or better in order to enroll in the Junior Core: Phys 051 and Phys 052, or Physics 072; Math 031, 032 and Math 133A, Chem 001A and Chem 001B. | ||
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.
