Undergraduate Requirements

FOUR YEAR QUARTERLY COURSE SCHEDULES

For the mechanical engineering curriculum, the required courses are presented for each quarter. Note that co-op students may need to "creatively" rearrange their schedules for timely graduation. Heed that it is ultimately the student's responsibility to satisfactorialy complete all the courses required for graduation.
