All potential engineering majors should begin engineering coursework in the fall semester of their first year. However, the precise order in which courses should be planned depends upon the student’s initial mathematics placement. The following is an example of a typical course schedule for Bioengineering majors during four years of study:

These pathways are effective for students matriculating in September 2022.
