The general education classes are split into two categories:  Core Courses (13 credits) and Distribution Courses (15 credits), for a total of 28 credits of general education classes.

Distribution courses are general education “electives”.  These 15 credits must be chosen from the Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences (HASS) Distribution List.  A limited number of credits may also come from the Creative Endeavor List and/or Supplemental List. 

NOTE:  The department requires that you take CM 3410, Technical Communication for Chemical Engineers.  This class is on the Supplemental List, therefore no other classes from the Supplemental List may be applied as gen ed distribution courses.

The current list of approved distribution classes can be found on OSSR's Schedule Planning Center web page.  You may also search for these classes on Banweb by selecting the following attributes:  Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences, HASS Creative Endeavor, or HASS Supplemental List. 

The following restrictions to the distribution classes apply:

• Minimum of 6 credits must be at the 3000-4000 level
• Limit of 3 credits from the Creative Endeavor List
• Limit of 3 credits from the Supplemental List  (Met with department required class, CM 3410)
