As most of your know the CHBE curriculum was updated in the Summer 2011 in order to split Senior Design from a single course (4505 @ 3 hrs) to a two-course sequence (4510 @ 2hrs and 4520 or 4530 (2 hrs). At the same time the Thermodynamics class was also revised and went from CHBE 2110 (3 hrs) to CHBE 2130 (2 hrs.)
When a curriculum is revised there is a period of transition in which the old course numbers are offered for currently enrolled students before the new course numbers are offered. Thus is the case with 2110/2130 and 3110/3130. Until Spring 2013, we have been offering CHBE 2110 (3 hrs) only. For students on newer curriculums, CHBE 2110 does not auto-populate for the requirement CHBE 2130. A note is entered on your degree audit, and the exception must be entered by a degree auditor. Likewise, we are offering CHBE 2130 (2 hrs) for the first time in Spring 2013. It will not auto-populate an audit when CHBE 2110 is the required course; an exception is required.
The same issue applies with CHBE 3110 and CHBE 3130.
Do Not Worry! The appropriate notes and exceptions will be entered into your audits. This usually happens when you are applying for graduation as a senior. I also update notes when you come for a scheduled appointment to better assist you with planning.
