Fwd:
TAMU and UTT are both now requiring engineering majors take ENGL 2311 in lieu of ENGL 1302.  ECON 2302 and PHIL 2316 are dictated core classes for engineering majors at both institutions.

TAMU: check their program for transferability of any ENGR coursework

Next semester there will be a SPCH 1321 for Engineers and SPCH 1315 for Education majors.  Both sections are late starts and online sections.
