*Notes

Indicated courses will be taken through NC State's Distance Education Program.

Please visit NC State's General Education Program (GEP) Requirements for more information.

Transfers to NC State as E 102 and counts as a GEP-Interdisciplinary Perspectives course.

  • Transfers to NC State as E 101.
  • UNI 102 taken in tandem with EGN 101 satisfies UNCW’s UNI 101 First Year Seminar course required for all first semester freshmen.
  • ISE students take a computer based modeling course based in Python, ISE 135. CSC 112 taught in Python or CSC 131 will transfer as an equivalent.
  • If not offered in summer, check to see if offered online in spring semester of second year. Course serves as a critical prerequisite.
  • Statics is a required course in the ISE curriculum. CE 214 is recommended, but students may take NC State's MAE 206 via DE or UNCW's EGN 201 from the Coastal Engr curriculum.
  • See NC State Catalog for list of approved Technical Electives and Engineering Science Electives and consult ISE advisor.
  • 2 additional credit hours of English composition are required to transfer to the COE from UNCW.
