Mathematics and Civil Engineering, Joint Degree Program, Chapman University/University of California, Irvine Suggested 5-year Plan


This is a sample academic plan only and is not meant to replace regular academic advising. This plan is flexible, and can be changed to accommodate Study Abroad, a second major and/or minor, or AP/IB credits. Completion of a minor or second major fulfills the GE I/M Cluster. Students should work with an academic advisor to develop a plan that meets their specific needs.

Minimum of 120 credits required to graduate, 42 must be upper division.

Joint major requirements


In order to participate in the joint degree program for admission to UCI, students pursuing the B.S. in Mathematics are required to:

  • Complete the first three years of appropriate program of study with an overall GPA of 3.400 or higher and earn a GPA of 2.000 or higher for all required major courses.
  • Complete all courses in the major for a letter grade, except those where the default grading option is P/NP.
  • Complete a minimum of 21 credits from upper-division courses in the major.
  • Complete a second UC-transferrable English Composition course to fulfill the UCI Transfer Requirements.
  • Complete two courses from the following subject areas: Arts and Humanities or Social and Behavioral Sciences.
  • Earn a minimum of C in all courses.

Majors are required to enroll in FFC 100B-First Year Foundations: Grand Challenges in Science and Engineering to satisfy their General Education requirement.
