Major overview sheets and 4-year plans

Below are resources about each engineering major including major overviews that describe the field of study, what graduates go on to do, and what makes the major distinct, 4 year sample educational plans, and links to the UW course catalog for each department.

Take into consideration:

  • Your actual course schedule will vary based on your academic background and course availability.
  • Visit the Engineering Areas of Impact to find meaningful general education courses that complement the areas you’re interested in.
  • New! Use the Interactive 4-year planning sheet  to help you plan your courses and set yourself up for academic success.
