Is this degree for you?
Curious about several engineering subjects but not sure which you want to study yet? Undeclared Engineering at ×ÔÒùϵÁÐ (×ÔÒùϵÁÐ) is a first-semester option that lets you spend your term exploring your unique interests before choosing your degree program to focus your studies. All of our 9 engineering programs share a common first semester, so you won’t be out of sync with your classmates.
In your first semester, you’ll dive into each discipline in our Introduction to Engineering course (CEN 100). You’ll also study engineering fundamentals such as physics, chemistry and calculus, so you’ll be prepared for any pathway.
Throughout your journey, our academic advisors and First-Year Engineering Office ambassadors can help guide you to the program that best suits you.
The following is a preview of first-year courses based on the available current academic Undergraduate Calendar for this program.
