<p>be a registered student and have completed at least one quarter (minimum of 12 units) at UC Davis;
have completed not more than 135 cumulative units (excluding AP units); students who have completed more than 135 units will be considered on an appeal basis only;

have received a letter grade for all courses that satisfy Engineering degree requirements;
have completed MAT 21A, B, C; Physics 9A and Chemistry 2A each with a grade of C- or better and a GPA in these five courses of 2.0 or better.</p>

<p>Change of Major petitions for students within the Department of Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering will be approved when a student is in good standing (specific and general requirements do not need to be met). </p>

<p>You must submit a petition for change of major by the tenth day of instruction of any quarter to be processed prior to Pass 1 registration for the next quarter. If you have completed more than 135 units you will not be allowed to file a change of major petition except by appeal. Your appeal must include a quarter-by-quarter program plan of study. </p>
