Sample Undergraduate Course Schedule for the Professional Program

*Four-year all course sequence for students enrolled in their First Year of the Professional Program.*

The professional degree program requires four years to complete. The curriculum includes a series of design classes, each of which is offered only once a year. Students must take the courses in order, as the content of each relies on information presented in previous courses.
