Students have the opportunity to take CE 102 where they can petition to waive a program specific requirement, not university or essential studies requirements, for the following courses: CE 101, CE 103, CE 313, CE 313L, CE 397(up to 3 crs), CE 411 , CE 412L, CE 423L, CE 431L, CE 444, ENGR 200, ENGR 340.
All engineering, science, and math transfer courses must earn a grade of "C" or higher to be applied to the program.
Students must complete a minimum of 21 credit hours of 300-level or higher coursework in Civil Engineering at UND, including CE 482 and CE 483.
The requirements on this page are pulled from UND’s academic catalog and may not reflect
future terms. Updates are published annually in April.
Many students transfer to UND to complete this degree program. View our transfer agreements
with other institutions and search a database to see how your credits will transfer.
Satisfy the eligibility requirement to sit for the NCEES PE examination. Accredited
by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, this program meets the education requirements to pursue a license as a Professional
Engineer in all 50 states.
