NOTES
The maximum number of credits per semester students can register
for is 19 (18 for Freshmen). Exceptions to this rule may be
made for students with an outstanding GPA (above 3.5), and
in cases where overload is a result of independent study or
research. Further information can be found in the
JHU
Catalog.
The
Dynamic Earth Laboratory (270.121) can be considered
by students opting for 270.120
The Dynamic Earth: An Introduction to Geology. The Introductory
Chemistry Laboratory II (030.106) should be given consideration
by students opting for 030.104
(Introductory Organic Chemistry), but it is not required.
It would count as a technical elective. Courses 270.120
or 030.104 are not required, and they may be replaced by
another natural science course (notice that the first Chemistry
course, 030.101,
is required).
Students may choose to fulfill the computer programming
requirement in their freshman year (see Section 3.3). Two
writing-intensive courses (at least 6 credits) are required, one of which must
be 060.113
(Practical Composition I) or 220.105/106
(Introduction to Fiction and Poetry Writing I and II).
These should be taken early in the student's program
(they must be taken for a letter grade and passed with a
grade of C or better). Students entering JHU during Fall 2006 and beyond: the second writing course of at least 3 credits must be taken from the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences. Students enrolled prior to Fall 2006: students may consider 500.211
(Technical Communication) as the second writing-intensive
course.
In their Junior year, students are normally
expected to register for 560.491-494
(Civil Engineering Seminar). These count as technical
electives. Students with an interest in Environmental
Engineering may register for the seminars offered at
the Department
of Geography and Environmental
