ENGINEERING FIELD OF STUDY
Senate Bill 148 of the 75th Texas Legislature (1997) mandated Field of
Study curricula. The field of study curricula, along with core
curricula, are intended to facilitate transferability of courses among
Texas public colleges and universities. All public four-year
institutions are required to accept Coordinating Board approved field of
study courses in fulfillment of lower-division requirements for
bachelors degrees in majors that correspond to the field of study.
Core Curriculum and Field of study for Engineering is designed for
students seeking a bachelors degree. In addition, there is a field of
study curricula for Engineering Technology for the B.S. in Civil,
Computer, Construction, Electrical, Electronics, Manufacturing, and
Mechanical.
Fields of study are valid only when no course substitutions are made.
