Courses listed in boldface italic type require a C or better for entrance to major.
MATH 140E & 141E are only available at University Park in the semester listed.
Students may substitute BIOL 141 for CHEM 112.
Courses listed in boldface type require a C or better for graduation in this major.
An Engineering Technical Elective is any three credit, 400-level engineering course NOT required for the major.
To graduate, one of the following lab courses must be taken: ME 315, 325, 355 or 375. EMCH 316 will satisfy the second lab requirement. 1 credit of
ME 445 can also be used as 1 credit of a ME lab course and a Mechanical Engineering Technical Elective (METE)
A Mechanical Engineering Technical Elective (METE) is any three‐credit, 400‐level ME or NUC E course that is not required for the major. ME 494 or
ME 496 may not be used.
Three credits of co-op may also be used for the GTE after completion of three co-op rotations.
Six ROTC credits may be substituted for three credits of GHA plus three GTE credits upon completion of the basic ROTC Program.
An elective course to satisfy General Education AHS requirements: GA - General Arts, GH - Humanities, GS - Social & Behavioral Sciences,
selected from the lists published in the University General Education Handbook.
Both M E 442W and M E 443W must be completed to satisfy the Senior Design Project (Capstone) requirement.
