It is recommended students complete high school algebra II, trigonometry, physics and two years of a second language in high school. Minimum Grade Requirements
- Average in (a) all college course work, and (b) course work at UCO: 2.00
- A minimum grade of “C” must be earned in all courses in the major to count toward meeting degree requirements.
Admission into Engineering Upper Division
Students seeking the B.S. in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics - Physics and Mechanical Engineering are required to make formal application to the Director of the School of Engineering for admission into the upper division of each of these majors. Applications must be submitted to the School of Engineering on or before the last Monday of January for Fall admission and the last Monday of August for Spring admission. Upper division admission is open to students meeting Engineering upper division admission requirements. To be admitted into upper division, the student must have: - A minimum retention grade point average (GPA) of 2.00 in all course work completed by the time the student is formally admitted into upper division.
- Completed 60 semester credit hours by the time the student is formally admitted into upper division.
- Completed the following courses or their equivalent with a minimum grade of “C” by the time the student is formally admitted into upper division:
Notes:
Formal approval by the school Faculty Advisor and School Director is required for admission. Preference is given to University of Central Oklahoma students. The student may enroll in no more than nine (9) hours of 3000 and 4000 level courses in the major prior to admission into upper division unless they secure formal approval from the School of Engineering. Accelerated Degree Pathway (ADP)
ADP B.S./M.S. Students in the B.S. in Mechanical Engineering program are eligible to pursue an M.S. in Engineering - Mechanical Engineering degree while still an undergraduate, which means that they can take courses that will count toward both the B.S. and M.S. degrees. A formal application to the M.S. Engineering -Mechanical Engineering program and approval from the School of Engineering are required. For more information, please see the Accelerated Degree Pathway requirements for the M.S. in Engineering -Mechanical Engineering in the Graduate Catalog. ADP B.S./P.S.M. Students in the B.S. in Mechanical Engineering program are eligible to pursue an P.S.M. (Professional Science Master’s) in Computational Science - Computational Engineering while still an undergraduate, which means that they can take courses that will count toward both the B.S. and P.S.M. degrees. A formal application to the P.S.M. Computational Science program and an approval from the School of Engineering are required. For more information, please see the Accelerated Degree Pathway requirements for the P.S.M. Computational Science - Computational Engineering in the Graduate Catalog. |
