Humanities and Social Sciences for Engineering Curricula

(Revised 03/06)

To provide future engineers with the ability to practice their profession in the context of societal needs and demands, all engineering curricula include a minimum of 15 credits designed to satisfy the University's General Education policy on humanities and social science as well as specific program objectives. Individual engineering curricula may require more than 15 hours of humanities/social science courses, and may have program-specific requirements. Students should consult the Undergraduate Announcements and their academic advisor.

The applicable Humanities and Social Sciences requirements depend on curriculum year (catalog year containing the curriculum). The policy for Curriculum Years 2005-06 and later applies to all students who entered Clemson as freshman in 2005-06, but also includes many who entered in 2004-05 or earlier. A student’s Degree Progress Report (DPR) shows the curriculum year that they are following.
