1 Students must achieve a grade of “C” or better.
2 ME 101 Introduction to Mechanical Engineering, ME 201 Student Design, ENGR 200 Computer Applications in Engineering and ME 397 Cooperative Education may be waived by successful completion of ME 102 Professional Assessment and Evaluation. The ethics requirement as represented by ENGR 340 Professional Integrity in Engineering may also be waived, but not the University’s Essential Studies Requirements.
3 Three technical electives must be completed from UND, one in each stem unless pursuing the aerospace concentration. One technical elective can be taken outside the ME Department within other CEM Departments, Math or Physics. The course must be at the 300-level or higher and be consistent with the student’s individual learning plan.
4 Course must be completed from UND.
5 ChE 315 of an alternative calculus-based statistics course may be substituted for MATH 321 with approval of the ME Department.
* All transfer courses must be completed with a "C" or better.
Students must complete enough electives to bring total credit hours up to the 128. Special Emphasis courses can fulfill an essential studies requirement (example-Chemistry 121, General Chemistry I, will count toward the Quantitative Reasoning special emphasis as well as the Math/Science/Tech breadth of knowledge area). Please Note: Every student must fulfill all University, Departmental, and Essential Studies requirements.
