Graduate Program

Undergraduate Course Prerequisites for Graduate Admissions

Before taking graduate courses the following minimum undergraduate course requirements must be satisfied:

Mathematic and calculus courses through differential equations and linear algebra, physics, statics, mechanics of materials, fluid mechanics, geology, soil mechanics and foundation engineering.

Transfer Credits

For the Master of Science program the department will accept up to 9 hours of graduate credit from other institutions if not used toward another degree.

For the Doctoral program, up to 15 semester hours of 5000 level or above course work may be transferred from another institution and applied towards the 30 hours minimum course work requirement. For a student who has obtained their MS degree at أغجاض±²¥ Boulder, up to 21 semester hours of 5000 level or above course work may be transferred.
