Show 110 DEPARTMENT OF ENGINEERING G. M. Alexander, J. Atkins, N. Cutler, H. P. Huish, E. S. Murphy, J. L. Jensen, M. L. Stevenson, W. Z. Terry The Engineering Department offers the first two years of the professional engineering programs for chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical, aeronautical, mining, metallurgical, and geological engineering. These two-year curricula are designed to prepare the engineering student so that he can transfer to the junior year of engineering at the senior colleges of engineering in the State of Utah and also to many other professional engineering colleges and universities. To be able to complete these curricula in two years, the student will need to possess adequate engineering aptitude and to have completed special entrance requirements. In order to assist the prospective engineering student to meet his goal in this very important and highly professional field of education and training, the Engineering Department prescribes the following entrance requirements and regulations. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS TO THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT To be fully matriculated for entrance into the Engineering Department, the student must have satisfactorily met the following entrance requirements: 1. Meet Weber College entrance requirements. 2. Have satisfactorily completed: a. Plane geometry b. First and second courses in algebra c. Three units of English For full matriculation in the Engineering Department, the student must have completed the prescribed mathematics, chemistry and English entrance requirements with a C grade or better from an accredited college within the past two years, or must pass the placement tests in these subjects with the specified college cutting scores. Students desiring entrance as majors in the professional engineering curricula of the Division must file application with both the College and the Division. Those students who meet full matriculation for their majors will be notified of their acceptance both to Weber College and to the Engineering Department. They will be counselled and registered by the Division. Since the Division cannot adequately handle all of the guidance problems for all of the unmatriculated students who apply f°,r registration as majors in the Engineering Department, the Di- vison will assume its share of these cases by a committee of the Division reviewing the applications of the unmatriculated applicants. The committee will then select as many as it can adequately handle, and these students will be admitted conditionally to the Engineering Department and registered by the Division as provisional engineering majors. As soon as their deficiencies are worked off and u the specified academic standards are met, they will be admitted as fully matriculated majors. Those unmatriculated applicants whom the Division is unable to counsel will be referred to the guidance committee with a statement of the deficiencies. As soon as these deficiencies are removed and, subject to satisfactory academic progress, they may re-apply for admission to the Engineering Department and will be admitted as fully matriculated engineering majors. I 111 Transfer students must meet the matriculation requirements and also the specified academic standards of the Department. ACADEMIC STANDARDS OF THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT To remain in good standing in the Engineering Department, the student must maintain at least the following grade point average on both a cumulative and a quarter basis: First quarter, 1.50; second quarter, 1:75; third quarter, 1.90; fourth quarter and all subsequent quarters, 2.00. Students failing to maintain the above scholarship requirements will be placed on Departmental academic probation. Any student who fails to maintain the above scholarship requirements for two successive quarters may be refused further registration in the Engineering Department until such time as he demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Division Committee and to the College Guidance Committee that he is likely to profit by such reinstatement.
