Breadth Requirements

EHC

Students must have approved experiences in two of the following areas:

  • Research
  • Interdisciplinary Coursework
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Global Experience
  • Service-Learning
  1. Engineering students can petition to complete a WC course required in their major as honors-by-contact.
  2. Engineering Fundamentals, Physics, Math, Chemistry, Biology, or Statistics
  3. If chosen wisely, most of these courses would also satisfy the EHC requirement.
