Degree Audit Procedure
- Prior to Graduating - Go to your Departmental Undergraduate Advisor or Coordinator, and request a Degree Audit. The degree audit and necessary course substitutions must be completed by your Departmental Undergraduate Advisor or Coordinator prior to submitting your online graduation application.
- You are responsible for turning in any equipment and other property belonging to the College of Engineering and for paying all fees. Failure to comply may result in the withholding of a student's diploma and official transcript.
Residence Rules
- All University students must complete in residence at least sixty semester hours of the coursework counted toward the degree. In the College of Engineering, thirty of these sixty hours must be in the major field or in a field closely related to the major as approved by the major department and the dean.
- Twenty-four of the last thirty semester hours counted toward the degree must be completed in residence.
- At least the last twenty-four hours of technical coursework counted toward an engineering degree must be taken while the student is registered as an undergraduate engineering major at the University. A student seeking an exception to this requirement must obtain written approval in advance from the dean. Information about the petition process is available in the Office of Student Affairs, Ernest Cockrell Jr. Hall 2.200.
Non-residence Coursework
A student in his or her final semester may not enroll concurrently at another institution in any course, including a distance education course, to be counted toward the degree. The student may also not enroll by extension or correspondence in coursework to be counted toward the degree. All transfer, extension, and correspondence coursework must be added to the student's official record before his or her last semester.
