[1] Students entering FAU with less than 30 credits must satisfy the course requirements specified in the catalog section, "Degree Requirements". Students entering FAU with more than 30 credits (transfer students) must see the undergraduate advisor for an evaluation of courses taken at another school. The general education requirements are normally satisfied if a student has an Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree from a Florida community college.

[2] Pre-engineering AA programs allow students to satisfy most or all of these required courses. [3] Fundamentals of Engineering is the preferredcourse; however, this course may not be available at all institutions. In certain instances, substitutions for this course may be allowed, provided that the credits are a part of an approved pre-engineering AA degree program. [4] Grade of "C" or better is required. [5] The course Analytical Methods can be used in lieu of Differential Equations I. [6] Need a "C" or better in all EE core courses.

[7] All EE electives must be approved by the Coordinator, Academic Programs. [8] In general, a technical elective is defined as an upper-division course in a technical discipline, e.g., computer engineering, math, etc. All technical electives must be approved by the Coordinator, Academic Programs. A maximum of 3 credits in Cooperative Education (EEL 4949) can be used as a technical elective. [9] Upper-division math elective must be approved by the Coordinator, Academic Programs.
