Engineering Standing
Engineering Majors
The College is committed to maintaining high academic standards, which is why undergraduate students must attain Engineering Standing before enrolling in most upper division courses.
The first two years of a program’s curriculum are considered to be lower division while the remaining two years are considered the upper division. For the most part, upper division engineering courses are those with course numbers in the 3000’s and 4000’s. In addition to the stated prerequisites and unless otherwise noted in the catalog, students must apply for and be granted Engineering Standing to enroll in any upper division Engineering course taught in the College of Engineering. A 2.70 GPA is required to receive engineering standing in the courses noted below.
This PDF lists the course requirements for students seeking Engineering Standing.. To apply for Engineering Standing, download and complete the application for your specific major or if you need engineering standing to pursue a minor, please fill out the standing form for non-engineering majors at the bottom of this page.
After filling out the application, email it directly to your academic advisor for processing If there are any issues with it, your advisor will respond accordingly. If you cannot find your advisor’s contact information, please email SPCEETadvising@kennesaw.edu and let us know so we can get you assigned to an advisor.
