Suggested K-State Core courses for ARE and CNSM students

The K-State Core framework, for all students entering the department fall 2024 and
beyond and students who have switched to the new curriculum, has 6 disciplinary
elective areas and one free elective area. Department students taking all required
coursework, completely satisfy requirements 1-4. Students must choose courses from
requirements 5-7 to complete the K-State Core.

The department recommends several courses on the lists for requirements 5-7 that
relate to desired skills in the design and construction industry, or may help with the
Fundamentals of Engineering exam. ARE and CNS students are not required to take
any of the courses listed below. These are just suggestions for students interested in
completing courses that may be a benefit upon entering the workforce.
