Additional Requirements
- A grade of "C" or better is required in all courses with an analytical or natural science designation or engineering or engineering technology prefix.
- A grade of "C" or better is required for courses with the prefix EET/MET/MERO, and any course in physics and mathematics that is required in subsequent courses.
Additional State/OSU Requirements
- At least: 60 hours at a four-year institution; 30 hours completed at OSU; 15 of the final 30 or 50% of the upper-division hours in the major field completed at OSU.
- Limit of: one-half of major course requirements as transfer work; one-fourth of hours earned by correspondence; 8 transfer correspondence hours.
- Students will be held responsible for degree requirements in effect at the time of matriculation and any changes that are made, so long as these changes do not result in semester credit hours being added or do not delay graduation.
- Degrees that follow this plan must be completed by the end of Summer 2032.
