General Education CoursesThe engineer must not only be a technically competent individual, but must also be a person who can understand, adjust and contribute to the social environment. All undergraduate students (except those transferring to UF with an AA from a Florida public community college or an AA from a Florida public state university) are required to complete the General Education requirement to graduate. Mathematics and Natural SciencesThe engineering pre-professional requirements easily meet the General Education Mathematical Sciences and Natural Sciences requirements as well as Gordon Rule Mathematics requirements. CommunicationsThe Communications General Education requirement can be met by completing ENC 2211 Communication for Engineers. Humanities and Social & Behavioral SciencesThe College of Engineering is accredited by ABET. It is required by ABET that we have depth and breadth in our general education courses. The College of Engineering has interpreted this to mean that students must take courses from the following general education categories: HumanitiesCourses relating humanities to engineering and the sciences, as listed in the humanities section of the general education requirements, are especially recommended.
