How long for a transfer student to complete an EE degree?

<p>Ok hopefully I'll be transferring to UT Austin next fall. I've looked at the degree plan for EE and it seems like a lot of classes have to be taken in a certain order since they build on top of each other. So I'm afraid that since I haven't started the engineering courses yet (intro to eng. and intro to computing) its gonna take me too long to complete the degree.</p>

<p>Cause I'm here at a community college in texas for two years so I'd like to be done with UT in three years. Is that doable? The relevant coursework I'll come in with is Calculus and calc-based Physics (the whole series of both). I'll also have a few basic classes done along with some premed classes like chemistry.</p>

<p>And that leads to another question. I'm going to need to take biochemistry 1 at UT. So how does that work in terms of getting accepted to different schools? Is there anything stopping me from majoring in engineering and taking classes in the natural science school even though it'll just be one class?</p>

<p>I’m entering my second year as a UT EE major. I was an out-of-state community college transfer with pretty much no engineering classes taken. First thing, don’t expect to graduate two years after transferring, there are too many engineering classes to take. </p>

<p>Depending on how many history and government classes you’ve taken, you should be able to graduate easily within 3 years. My college didn’t require government or history classes so I had to take them here. </p>

<p>About that biochemistry class, I haven’t heard anything about that class being required for EE majors. Hope I helped, somewhat.</p>

<p>Yeah thanks. I’m hoping to get done in three years after I transfer to UT. If anyone else could verify that that’d be great. </p>

<p>Also I asked about biochem because I need it for my premed track.</p>
