Engineering 3-2 Core Courses

In addition to satisfying the Whittier College Liberal Education requirements, all 3-2 students must complete the following 33 credits in science and mathematics with a 3.0 GPA:

• PHYS 150 - Calculus-Based Physics I (Mechanics) 4 credits
• PHYS 180 - Calculus-Based Physics II (Electricity and Magnetism) 4 credits
• PHYS 185 - Calculus-Based Physics III (Optics, Waves, and Thermodynamics) 3 credits
• MATH 141 - Calculus & Analytical Geometry I 4 credits
• MATH 142 - Calculus & Analytical Geometry II 4 credits
• MATH 241 - Calculus & Analytical Geometry III 4 credits
• MATH 345A - Differential Equations I 3 credits
• COSC 120 - Computer Science I 3 credits
• CHEM 110A - General Chemistry I 4 credits

Requirements

Some 3-2 students may wish to complete a B.A. in Science and Letters in combination with an engineering degree. This option offers more flexibility than the 3-2 majors in chemistry , physics , or math , but students cannot receive a B.A. in Science and Letters without completing an engineering program. The requirements for the Science and Letters major include the Liberal Education program, the 3-2 core courses, and the requirements for a minor in Physics , Chemistry , or Mathematics , and three additional credits of upper division courses in any of these disciplines.
