Course III Curriculum
The Course III S.B. includes the core subjects, a Thesis or Internship, and Restricted Electives chosen from a wide assortment. Core subjects are 3.012 and 3.014 (Sophomore Fall) and 3.022 and 3.024 (Sophomore Spring), and 3.032, 3.034, 3.042 and 3.044 (Junior or Senior). A 12-unit math subject, 3.016, is offered as an alternative to 18.03 and also satisfies computation requirements.
The table below describes these subjects. See the schedule page and the degree requirements for detailed information. The Course 3 SB is accredited by ABET and follows a set of Educational Objectives.
