<p>Hi!</p>
<p>I'm planning on internally transferring from CALS to Engineering. Can anyone tell me if BEE 1510 can substitute for CS 1112 and if CHEM 2070 can substitute for CHEM 2090? They are pretty much the same classes, but in the engineering handbook, it looks like if I am matriculating in the Engineering school, Chem 2090 and CS 1112 are required. </p>
<p>Thank you very much!</p>
<p>*bumping up my question</p>
<p>All i know is that 2070 doesn’t substitute for 2090.</p>
<p>Greenace: My son just transferred spring 2012 from CALS Environmental Engineering to the College of Engineering (Mechanical Engineering.) He met with the advisor and she told him that his 2070 was satisfy 2090; his BEE 1510 would satisfy CS 1112; and he still has to take either CS 1130 or CS 1132 (both one credit courses either Java or Matlab). It is my understanding that since he took Matlab (BEE 1510) they want him to take 1130 (which is Java oriented.) He had taken every other requirement for Mech. Engineering, so the transfer process was very simple. Hope that helps!</p>

<p>Thank you, thank you! I am extremely relieved to know this. </p>
<p>If you don’t mind me asking, did your son transfer during his sophomore year? And if so, did he do that spring semester? </p>
<p>Also, do you happen to know the minimum GPA he needed to transfer?</p>
<p>Thank you once again!</p>
<p>Greenace: Yes, he applied in December (the end of first semester sophomore year) and was notified in January of this year. They did not say there was a minimum GPA requirement (his was a high 3.4. All I know is that he could not get lower than a C- in Engineering Thermodynamics ENGRD 2210 (he got an A) and in Statics and Mechanics ENGRD 2020 (he got a B). They also look at the classes you have taken - to make sure you will be on target (and he had everything he needed to major in Mechanical.)</p>
<p>Thank you very much @NYProspect! </p>
<p>I just have one more question: Did the BEE 1200 class (The BEE Experience) your son took in spring semester of his freshman year substitute for the required “Introduction to Engineering” course for freshman in the College of Engineering? Typically, these “Introduction to Engineering” courses are three credits, whereas the BEE 1200 class is one credit. </p>
<p>Thank you once again for helping me out! You have provided me with so much invaluable information!</p>
<p>GreenAce: I am not sure, but when he was Environmental in CALS, I think he had to make up the 2 credit difference, so I am sure he still does. Not sure how though, he has to check on that.</p>
<p>Thank you so much @NYProspect! If I could just bother you for one more favor; that is, to ask your son if/how he made up the two-credit difference in his introduction to Engineering class?</p>
