Transfer Notes (Engineering Majors)

Complete enough units to reach the total of 120 units required for the degree.

Complete two Diversity and Common Ground (DCG) courses, at least one course must have a domestic focus (DCG-domestic). Look for General Education courses that double-count for DCG.

Complete 6 units upper division General Education (3 units each areas C and D); and any lower division GE or American Institutions (US History and US/CA Government) courses not taken prior to transfer.

See the Cal Poly Humboldt catalog for course descriptions as well as, major, general education, American Institutions, and Diversity and Common Ground requirements.
