Degree Requirements

The Bachelor of Science in Renewable Energy Engineering follows a rigorous curriculum, requiring a minimum of 180 credit hours, which takes approximately four years to complete. To be eligible for graduation, students must maintain a 2.0 GPA. In addition, a final grade of “C” or better must be earned in all courses with MATH, CHE, PHY, EE, ENGR, MECH, and REE prefixes. Students must also earn a grade of “C” or better in all courses listed as prerequisites for these courses.

Renewable Energy Engineering Electives*

9 credits of technical electives are required. At least 3 of these classes must be REE 300-level or above and up to two courses from the following list: 300- or 400-level EE courses (except for EE 320), ENGR42X, or SEM42X. No more than three 1-credit courses are allowed. Enrollment in graduate-level courses at the undergraduate level requires special approval. Examples of acceptable elective courses are:

EE 341 Electricity/Magnetism w/Transm
EE 343 Solid State Electronic Devices
EE 347 Digital Logic
MECH 433 HVAC
REE 307 Seminar
REE 331 Fuel Cells
