Notes:
Computer Engineering & Electrical/Electronic Option: This plan assumes that a student is able to place immediately into MATH 30 (Analytic Geometry and Calculus) and CHEM 1. This plan does not cover the minimum CSU GE needed to transfer unless A1 and A3 taken as electives. For A3, many CSUs (e.g. CSUC) waive for Engineering majors. For CSUC, Area F (Area E CSU) is met by upper division course in the major. See www.assist.org.
