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 three hours each of economics (ECON 2100) and history/political science, combined with an additional three hours of Institute-approved social science courses, satisfies the twelve-hour social sciences requirement.

chemical and biomolecular engineering electives

Both the Chemical Engineering Elective in the Standard Program and the Biotechnology Elective in the Biotechnology Option must be chosen from restricted lists available on the School's Web site (three hours each for the Standard Program and the Biotechnology Option, but from different lists).

Technical Electives-Standard Program

Six hours of technical electives are required for the standard program. To qualify as a technical elective, a course must be chosen from courses in the Colleges of Engineering, Sciences, or Computing, and may include one course at the 2000 or higher level plus the remainder at the 3000 or higher level. Students may count up to six hours of undergraduate research (CHBE 4699) toward fulfilling the technical elective requirements, and research hours in excess of six credits may be used to satisfy free elective requirements.

Technical Electives-Biotechnology Option

There are no technical electives for the Biotechnology Option.

Free Electives

Students may count up to six hours of undergraduate research (CHBE 4699) toward fulfilling the technical elective requirement, and research hours in excess of six credits may be used to satisfy the six hours of free electives requirement.

Pass/Fail Courses

Up to nine hours of undesignated humanities, social sciences, or free electives may be taken on a pass/fail basis. All other courses in the chemical and biomolecular engineering curriculum must be taken on a letter-grade basis. Transfer students are restricted to fewer pass/fail hours.
