Requirements for Business and Technology Students

Since you are enrolled in a lock-step program, you must adhere to the required sequence of courses which includes two courses in Group A (literature or philosophy) and two in Group B (history or social science), as well as one humanities elective. More details are available through the Stevens Catalog. Follow links to "School of Technology Management" and "Undergraduate Programs".

Requirements for Computer Science Majors

If you are enrolled in the computer science program, you must satisfy the requirements for engineering and science degree students (see above) and take one additional 300/400-level course, for a total of nine courses in humanities or social sciences. You are also encouraged to join the minor program in humanities or social sciences and among the nine basic courses you must take HSS 371.

The Writing Program

Proficiency in written English is a graduation requirement of all undergraduates. To achieve an acceptable level of proficiency, you may be required to take courses recommended by the Humanities Department. These courses include but are not limited to Hum 103/104, Freshman Writing and Humanities. If you experience writing skills difficulties while enrolled in any Humanities courses, you may be referred for free tutoring. All students must pass the Stevens English Competence Exam (SECE) in order to graduate. Upper division students may be allowed to submit a writing portfolio for evaluation instead.

Cross Registration with New York University

You may take courses in the College of Arts and Sciences at New York University through a special cross-registration program at no charge. To have the course count towards a Stevens degree, you must be enrolled full-time in a regular Stevens degree program. Please direct any questions to the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Academics at Stevens, (201) 216-5228.
