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 210 General Chemistry I OR Chem 220 General Chemistry II | |
| 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 251 Calculus with Analytic Geometry I | |
| MATH 031 Calculus II | Math 252 Calculus with Analytic Geometry II | |
| MATH 032 Calculus III | Math 253 Calculus with Analytic Geometry III | |
| MATH 129A Linear Algebra I | MATH 270 Linear Algebra CONTENT CREDIT ONLY | |
| OR | ||
| CHEM 001B General Chemistry | Chem 210 General Chemistry I AND Chem 220 General Chemistry II Equivalent only if sequence is complete | |
| MATH 133A Ordinary Differential Equations Community College Math courses articulated with SJSU's Math 129A or 133A will meet the course content requirements for the major but will not receive upper division credit. | Math 275 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 and 71 (equivalent to PHYSICS 50, 51, 52) 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 008 Plane Surveying | No Current Equivalent | |
| CE 099 Statics Students must earn a grade of "C-" or better in this course. | Engr 230 Engineering Statics | |
| ENGR 010 Introduction to Engineering | ENGR 100 Introduction to Engineering | |
| CE 020 Engineering Graphics, CAD and Programming | No Current Equivalent | |
| Note: Courses articulated to both ME 20 and ME 30 would be used to satisfy CE 20. | ||
| EE 098 Introduction to Circuit Analysis | Engr 260 Circuits & Devices | |
| MATE 025 Introduction to Materials | Engr 270 Materials Science | |
| 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 110 Composition, Literature and Critical Thinking OR Engl 165 Advanced Composition | |
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.
