Quarter-to-Semester Conversion (2016-2017 Catalog)
Cal State LA converted from a quarter-system campus to a semester-system campus effective Fall semester of 2016. As a result of this conversion, the requirements for the bachelor of science in mechanical engineering underwent some curricular changes. Those continuing students who were admitted prior to the semester conversion have the option to continue to complete the quarter-based mechanical engineering program, or they may choose to update their requirements to the semester-based program. This would not affect a student's general education requirements, which may also be completed to either the quarter or semester system catalog, irrespective of which mechanical engineering requirements they choose. For further information, students should make an appointment to meet with an academic advisor.
