* Eighteen hours of
Humanities/Social Science courses are required. These must include nine hours in
Humanities, nine hours in Social Sciences including one sequence. Also required
is one literature, one fine arts, one CA 110 (Public Speaking), one history and
one Social and Behavioral Science.
** The Mechanical Engineering design elective must be an approved Mechanical
Engineering course.
*** The technical elective is normally a 300- or 400-level course from
mathematics, science, computer and information sciences, or engineering, and
must be approved by the advisor
****All required 100- and 200-level courses are prerequisite to 400-level
courses.
