| 1 | ENG 114 can only be taken if you complete Directed Self-Placement (DSP) and select ENG 114; if you choose ENG 104/ENG 105 through DSP you will satisfy A2 upon successful completion of ENG 105 in the second semester; multilingual students may be advised into alternative English courses. |
| 2 | Depending on courses completed through Early Start, students in Pathway/Category III or IV may be required to enroll in a support course to complement their Quantitative Reasoning/B4 requirement. There are multiple course options for this pathway. Before enrolling in a B4 course, students should verify their MATH Pathway/Category in their Student Center. Information regarding the courses that correspond with your MATH Pathway/Category can be found on the Developmental Studies Office Website. |
| 3 | To avoid taking additional units, it is recommended that you meet SF State Studies (AERM, GP, ES, SJ) and Ethnic Studies requirements within your GE or major. |
| 4 | GE Area A: Critical Thinking (A3) is satisfied upon completion of ENGR 205 and either ENGR 201 or ENGR 213. |
| 5 | GE Area UD-B: Upper-Division Physical and/or Life Sciences is satisfied upon completion of ENGR 300 and either ENGR 301 or ENGR 302. |
| 6 | You must complete 21 units of upper-division Engineering units before registering for ENGR 696. |
| 7 | Major Electives (12 units) |
| 8 | Engineering Electives (6-15 units) Units selected on advisement from: ENGR 425 Reinforced Concrete Structures (3 units) A program cannot contain more than 9 units of courses with a course number below 700. Some upper-division Engineering courses may also be used as electives if not used in the undergraduate degree program and approved by the Graduate Coordinator. Non-Engineering Electives (0-6 units) Courses, either graduate or upper-division, selected primarily from science, mathematics, social science, or business, upon approval of the Graduate Coordinator. |
