The engineering transfer program consists of two years of study in the Physics Department at Rutgers-Camden and two years in the School of Engineering at Rutgers-New Brunswick. Below, you will find suggested curriculum sheets for each of the most common majors in the School of Engineering.

Transfer Information

Suggested Course Sequences

The sequences are for the five most popular engineering majors.

Mechanical Engineering

Chemical Engineering

To complete the program in four years, qualified students should take 14:155:201: Chemical Engineering Analysis and 14:155:208: Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics at New Brunswick in the summer after completing the two-year curriculum at Camden. They are required courses that must be taken before the junior-level major courses. 

Civil Engineering

Electrical and Computer Engineering

Biomedical Engineering

To complete the program in four years, qualified students should attempt to transfer after their first year. 14:125:201: Introduction to Biomedical Engineering and 14:125:208: Introduction to Biomechanics are required courses that have no equivalent in Camden and are not offered in the summer in New Brunswick. They must be completed before several of the third-year courses.

Approved Humanities and Social Science Electives

Fifteen to 18 credits of Social Science or Humanities electives are required. These credits include the required MicroEconomics (50:220:102) course in Camden. Only six credits of the remaining 12-15 may be at 100-200 level. Get the details, including examples.
