Undergraduate / Advising & RegistrationCourse Duplicates
Some courses at the university cover substantially the same subject matter. If a pair of courses considered to be duplicates is taken, only one of them can be used to fulfill any requirement of a McCormick degree or certificate.
Duplicates are not alternatives from which to choose.
If two courses are listed as duplicates and a student is required to take one of them but instead takes the other, then that student will nevertheless be held to the requirement of the first course. In such a case, the second course cannot even be used to fulfill one of the unrestricted elective requirements.
Please direct any questions about course duplicates to the Undergraduate Engineering Office in Tech L269.
Duplicate Courses List
The following are the sets of course duplicates.
- In the list, an ampersand ("&") indicates that the courses are duplicates of each other.
- If a course can be a duplicate of a combination of courses, the combination of linked courses is indicated by an "and."
