Environmental Resources Engineering, B.S. Transfer MAP

Major Academic Plans for Transfer Students

At Cal Poly Humboldt, your path to graduation is shaped by your goals and interests. Major Academic Plans (MAPs) suggest courses each semester to help you meet degree requirements in four years. They’re flexible, especially for General Education & All-University Requirements , so use them as a guide - not a rule. Some majors fulfill GE requirements through Approved General Education Modifications by Major . Use DARS planning tools and MAPs to build your plan, and meet with your advisor each semester to customize your schedule and stay on track.

Major Academic Plans (MAPs) for Transfer Students show what courses you might take each semester in order to meet university and major program requirements and graduate in two years. This is a suggested two-year plan for transfer students who have earned an associate degree for transfer (AA-T or AS-T), or students who have completed 60 semester/90 quarter transferable college credits (including all lower division CSU General Education areas 1-6, and American Institutions). Students may need to complete additional lower-division major coursework depending on the coursework completed prior to transfer. Discussing course options with an advisor will best serve you in planning a customized schedule to meet your individual academic needs.
