All Engineering electives at the 5000 level or above are counted.
Students need to take a minimum of 2 electives (6 hours) in the major, as the new elective requirements from Spring 2023 and moving forward.
Only one graded pass and fail class that is outside of the department to be counted as an elective requirement with faculty advisor and department approval, and students need to notify the graduate coordinator which pass and fail class is approved.
