Consider The Truly Tough Problems In The World Today Bioengineers are working to solve them. Now you can too.

Summer Session Offerings: 

Summer Session Offerings Session 1: ME 1C, ME 10 Session 2: ME 18 Special Sessions: O-chem (Recommended only if you failed 112B) *Summer session is designed for those who are behind to catch up, not to “get ahead.” See your advisor prior to trying to “get ahead.”

Important Notes: 

Important Notes If you have not taken ME 10 and are taking upper division BIEN coursework in Fall, you must take ME 10 this summer. Freshmen should change to the 06 catalog as ME 1C and ME 18 will be required for upper division coursework in 07-08. Consult your advisor on how to include the new courses in your plan. Sophomores who will be juniors and take upper division coursework in Fall 06 should stay on the 2005 catalog and take CS 10 and ENGR 118.

A list of Technical Electives and Breadth Requirements is available on the College of Engineering Student Academic Affairs Office website: www.engr.ucr.edu/studentaffairs. * Optional, but recommended, courses. Suggested Course Plan for a UC Riverside Major in Bioengineering 06 (Catalog Year: 2006)

Upper Division Honors Program: 

Upper Division Honors Program Eligibility Requirements: Cumulative GPA of 3.4 Major GPA of 3.5 Two letters of recommendation A minimum of 3 quarters participation is required. Some overlap with TEs may be possible. Brochures are available in the lobby of the Student Academic Affairs Office, or you can contact the Honors Program.

Minors/Double Majors/EAP: 

Minors/Double Majors/EAP Students should begin thinking about whether they wish to take a minor, double major or go on an EAP experience in their sophomore year Students should then see their advisor to determine eligibility for these options prior to starting classes Students should declare a minor/double major no later than their junior year

Minors/Double Majors/EAP: 

Minors/Double Majors/EAP The College of Engineering denies almost all double major requests because of unit caps. If you are a senior who has not declared their intent to minor, but is planning to do so, see your advisor THIS QUARTER.

Minors/Double Majors/EAP: 

Minors/Double Majors/EAP Factors that could affect approval of any of these extra programs include: your overall unit total academic standing your unit total GPA in minor subject quarter of graduation The College of Engineering will NOT extend a student past their graduation quarter to pursue extra coursework.

Email Reminders: 

Email Reminders If you forward your campus mail to Yahoo, Hotmail, or any other carrier, you are responsible for anything sent to you…even if the email does not reach you.
