Two Professional Practice Track OR Science and Math Track (6 credits)
Students will elect to take either the Professional Practice track or the Science and Mathematics track; mixing of tracks is not permitted. The Professional Practice track has a series of courses drawn from different departments across the university and stresses disciplines such as professional communication, economics and business, the environment, and similar. Some courses may require force registration through the department offering the course. Please contact that department directly. The Science and Mathematics track increases the exposure of the student to these areas over and above the usual requirements for the BSME degree and may be useful for students who are considering Graduate Studies (MS, PhD).
Notes
*Students are permitted to take alternative programming courses EAS 240 or CSE 115 in lieu of EAS 230 , however EAS 230 is strongly preferred for Mechanical Engineering majors. The alternative programming courses should only be utilized by students transferring into the program with EAS 240 , CSE 115 , or EAS 999TRCP (general programming for transfer students) already completed. View our Computer Programming Requirement website
for more information on the programming alternatives and self-study packages.
**Students are permitted to use CIE 177 or EAS 999TR177 (general graphics for transfer students) to satisfy this requirement. However, MAE 177 is strongly preferred for Mechanical Engineering majors. The CIE 177 or EAS 999TR177 should only be utilized by students transferring into the program with these courses already completed. View our Graphics Requirement website for more information on graphics alternatives and self-study packages.
***Transfer students with Senior standing must replace MAE 277 with an SEAS technical elective. Transfer students with Junior standing should consult with an MAE academic adviser to determine if they should take MAE 277 or replace it with an SEAS technical elective.
****A maximum combined total of 6 credits from the following courses can be used to satisfy degree requirements: EAS496, MAE496, MAE498, MAE499.
*****Students are permitted to use PHY 151 and PHY 152 in lieu of PHY 158 , however PHY 158 is preferred for engineering majors.
****This course can only be applied to either the Applied Math Elective OR the Science and Math Track. Under no circumstances can this course fulfill both categories.
