* ME, MFGE, & TAM courses from this list satisfy the MechSE Elective requirement. Students who entered prior to August 2007 may also use IE courses from this list as MechSE Electives.

  1. NO MORE THAN 3 HOURS of individual study courses may be used to satisfy the ME Elective and Technical Elective requirements.  Additional hours may be used as Free Electives.  Technical Elective credit for individual study courses from other departments is given only by petition.  It is expected that a final report will be prepared and submitted to the faculty advisor at the conclusion of an individual study.
  2. Depending on the technical content, some Special Problems courses (typically, new lecture-discussion courses) may or may not be approved for Technical Elective credit.  A Curriculum Modification Petition should be submitted to the Undergraduate Programs Office to request the use of these courses for Technical Elective credit.   The petition should be submitted before registering in the respective course.
  3. Credit is allowed for only one of any two or more Technical Electives with significant overlap, for example,
    CEE 201 & GE 330; IE 300 & STAT 400 (MATH 463); IE 411 & MATH 482; ME 430 & TAM 424.
  4. Credit is not given for Math 241 and Math 380.
