NOTES:
- No student may exceed a maximum of two attempts, including a W, to complete successfully any BMOL or CHE course.
- In addition to institutional requirements, candidates for a BS degree in Chemical Engineering are required to have a cumulative grade-point average of 2.00 or higher in all engineering courses taken at Clemson. Undergraduate and graduate courses taught in the following rubrics are used in the calculation of a student’s engineering GPA (eGPA): AMFG, AUE, BE, BIOE, BMOL, CE, CES, CHE, CME, ECAS, ECE, EES, EG, EM, ENGR, ESED, IE, ME, and MSE. All attempts of these courses with grades of A, B, C, D, F, and I are included in the calculation. Grades of CE, CR, FGD, FGF, NP, P, SCD, SCN, SCP, TR, and W are NOT included in the calculation.
- Depending on a student’s math placement, they may be invited to take part in the General Engineering Learning Community where they complete the following courses: ENGR 1000 , ENGR 1010 , ENGR 1100 , ENGR 1110 , ENGR 1510 , and ENGR 1520 . The combination of ENGR 1510 and ENGR 1520 may be substituted for ENGR 1020 .
- A transfer course may not be used to satisfy the General Education Global Challenges Requirement. While a transfer course may fulfill other degree requirements, students must enroll in a Clemson course(s) on the Global Challenges list to fulfill the Global Challenges Requirement.
