Applicants who are applying to the programs without a directly related undergraduate degree should closely check the prerequisites. Additional undergraduate courses may be required.</p> <br /> <p>Applicants do not need to have Calculus 1 to 3 and Differential Equations to apply though it is preferred.</p> <br /> <p>Applicants in Engineering and Science Majors do not need any articulation courses. Applicants in other majors may need to take the following articulation courses:</p> <br /> <ul> <li>MAC 2311 Calculus with Analytic Geometry I</li> <li>MAC 2312 Calculus with Analytic Geometry II</li> <li>MAS 3105 Matrix and Linear Algebra</li> <li>CGN 3405 Numerical Methods for Civil Engineering</li> </ul><h1>Degree Requirements</h1><div><section><header data-test=\"grouping-0-header\"><div><h2
