What is a typical first-year schedule?
A typical first-year engineering schedule includes four courses in the fall and five in the spring. In the fall, engineering students usually take physics, math, chemistry, and either a writing seminar or elective. In the spring, they continue physics and math and add computer programming and two electives (or one elective and a writing seminar). Students are assigned to take the University writing requirement during either the fall or spring of freshman year.
