All undergraduate students attending Georgia Tech must satisfactorily complete a wellness requirement (HPS 1040 or equivalent).

Humanities/Social Sciences Electives

ENGL 1101 and 1102 apply toward satisfaction of the twelve-hour humanities requirement. An additional six hours of Institute-approved humanities courses are required to fulfill the twelve-hour humanities requirement. To satisfy the state requirements regarding coursework in the history and constitutions of the United States and Georgia, students must complete one of the following courses: HIST 2111, HIST 2112, POL 1101, PUBP 3000, or INTA 1200. One of these courses, combined with an additional nine hours of Institute-approved social science courses, satisfies the twelve-hour social sciences requirement. Courses taken in humanities and social sciences must be scheduled on a letter-grade basis.

Technical Elective

The science elective must be chosen from a list of approved courses, including a computer science offering. These are listed at www.ae.gatech.edu/undergraduate.

Only the free electives may be taken on a pass/fail basis. Further details on the undergraduate program are available at www.ae.gatech.edu/undergraduate.
