<p>NE and its joint majors all require the following lower division courses:</p>
<p>Math 1A, 1B, 53, 54
Physics 7A, 7B, 7C
Chemistry 1A/1AL or 4A
E 45 (prerequisite is Physics 7A)
EE 40 (or 100 if not EECS/NE) (prerequisite is Physics 7B)
NE 92 (or E 10 for ME/NE)</p>
<p>Where they differ:</p>
<p>NE: E 7 (corequisite is Math 1B)
EECS/NE: CS 61A, 61B, EE 20N (prerequisite is Math 1B; Math 53 and 54 helpful)
MSE/NE: E 7, ME C85
ME/NE: E 7, 28, ME 40 (prerequisite is Physics 7B and E 7), ME C85 (prerequisite is Math 53 and 54 and Physics 7A)</p>
<p>What you probably want to do first semester is the following:</p>
<p>NE 92 (1 unit seminar about what nuclear engineers do)
E 92 and/or EE 25 (1 unit seminars about what engineers do; optional)
Math course: see <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-berkeley/1305840-freshman-math-faq.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-berkeley/1305840-freshman-math-faq.html</a> .
Science course: Physics 7A if you are in a math course higher than Math 1A; Chemistry 1A/1AL or 4A otherwise, unless you have a 3 on AP chemistry.</p>
<p>and two (or three if you are in Math 1A but have AP credit for chemistry) courses from the following:</p>
<p>E 7
E 28
CS 61A
Reading and composition course
Other humanities or social studies course
Chemistry 1A/1AL or 4A (if you are in Physics 7A and do not have AP credit for chemistry)</p>
