What is a free elective course and why does the SCU civil engineering program have only one such course in its curriculum?
Free elective courses are those courses offering students essentially complete freedom of choice. Such courses allow students to explore secondary academic interests or obtain additional background in a particular subject area. After satisfying national engineering accreditation requirements together with the broad University Core Curriculum, the SCU civil engineering program has room for just a single free elective course in a normal four-year program. Freshmen entering the University with approved AP credit or other college-level academic credit can often make room in their program of studies for additional free electives.
