MNE Curriculum Degree Maps
Degree Maps provide a chart representation of the MNE course curriculum requirements.
Note: DARS reports are the official check for completion status of degree requirements. Degree maps are used as informational guides.
Students are either on the K-State Core or K-State 8 curriculum. You can find your current curriculum on DARS, shown as the Catalog Year in the top right corner of the report.
MNE students currently on the K-State 8 curriculum have the option to change to the K-State Core curriculum (see below).
K-State Core Curriculum: Catalog Year Fall 2024 or after
The College of Engineering Degree maps for the K-State Core curriculum can be found on the K-State Engineering Undergraduate Degree Maps website.

K-State Core Requirements
Students take courses that cover seven disciplinary areas as a part of the K-State Core requirements, which are shown on degree maps and DARS for the K-State Core curriculum. Many mandatory courses for degree requirements fulfill these criteria. Note that requirements #5 - Social & Behavioral Sciences and #6 - Arts & Humanities are required to be from two different subject areas from the approved course listing.
K-State 8 Curriculum: Catalog Year Prior to Fall 2024
Students who enrolled for the first time at K-State prior to Fall 2024, entered in on the K-State 8 Curriculum. The Nuclear Engineering Option is shown on the flowchart.

K-State 8 Requirements, and Humanities & Social Science Electives
Students take H&SS electives as part of the MNE K-State 8 curriculum. These electives must be courses selected from the College of Engineering's approved H&SS Course List.
Each student must also successfully complete courses that to cover all of the K-State 8 areas. The College of Engineering's K-State 8 Matrix, is helpful for selecting H&SS courses that meet the required K-State 8 areas.
