Notes:
CHEM 107/117: Biomedical engineering, chemical engineering and material science and engineering degrees require a two-semester sequence of chemistry courses consisting of CHEM 119 or CHEM 107/117 and CHEM 120. Students interested in other majors in the College of Engineering are encouraged to complete CHEM 107/117.
Students considering medical school after completion of their undergraduate degree are encouraged to take both CHEM 119 and CHEM 120.

Several 300-400 level courses require junior/senior level classification and cannot be taken by students with less than 60 passed hours.
Additional Notes:
Corps of Cadets: Must register for the required SOMS, MLSC, NVSC or AERS courses; Corps Band members must also add the required KINE 199 section. See Corps Advisor with any questions regarding requirements.
Dual credits: Dual credit that has been received and processed by the Texas A&M admissions office is reflected on your unofficial transcript in Howdy. Use the transfer course equivalency guide found in Howdy to verify course equivalency for course credit that has not been processed by Texas A&M. Open Howdy > My Record tab > Transfer Course Equivalency.
Foreign language: All students graduating from Texas A&M must complete two semesters of the same foreign language in high school or one year of the same language at the college level. See the Texas A&M Catalog page for details.
Honors: Engineering Honors students are encouraged to register for an honors section of ENGR 102 and have the option of taking ENGR 181 either fall or spring semester. University Honors students are required to take at least six honors credits per year and are required to participate in the Learning Community Seminar by registering for UGST 181-Honors Family Meeting in both the fall and spring semesters.
