Students should consult with the ENT Department for a list of the approved technical electives and the terms when specific courses of this type are to be offered.

8. University Minimum Graduation Requirements
  • A 2.0 UCF GPA
  • 60 semester hours earned after any CLEP award
  • 48 semester hours of upper division credit completed
  • 30 of the last 36 hours of course work must be completed in residency at UCF
  • 25% of course work must be completed in residency at UCF
  • A maximum of 45 hours of extension, correspondence, CLEP, Credit by Exam, and Armed Forces credits permitted
  • Complete the General Education Program, the Gordon Rule, the CLAST, and nine semester hours of Summer credit (if applicable)
128 hrs
Total Semester Hours Required
  • Related Programs: Engineering Technology (Operations Concentration).
  • Related Minors: Interdisciplinary Informatics Technology

Transfer Notes:

  • Students transferring from any Florida public institution with an AA degree or with the general education program (GEP) requirements of that institution met have thereby satisfied UCF GEP requirements.
  • Students entering a UCF undergraduate program and having a previously earned baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution have thereby satisfied UCF GEP requirements. (See also the section on the GEP found elsewhere in this catalog.)
  • Courses taken from Community Colleges do not substitute for Upper Division Courses.
  • Courses transferred must be formally evaluated for equivalency credit. The student must provide all supporting information to the ENT Department for this evaluation.
  • ENT Departmental Residency Requirements consist of at least 32 semester hours of regularly scheduled 3000- or 4000-level courses taken from the UCF ENT Department.
  • PHY 2048/L and 2049/L substitute for PHY 2053C and PHY 2054C respectively.

Tentative Course Schedule for the Operations Concentration

The tentative course schedule listed below is a guide for those students who plan on completing their engineering technology degree requirements in four years. Many students choose to spread out these requirements over a longer period of time. All engineering technology students should meet with their faculty advisor to develop and maintain an appropriate plan of study.
