Engineering Concentration (32 total credits)

The engineering concentration consists of a selection of engineering courses drawn from one of the traditional engineering disciplines or an approved interdisciplinary engineering concentration. The concentration is drawn solely from courses offered within the College of Engineering, and requires at least 16 credits of advanced coursework (200-level or above). ENGR 160 or ENGR 200 may not be counted towards the engineering concentration.

Arts and Sciences Concentration (32 total credits)

The arts and sciences concentration consists of a selection of courses drawn either from one of the traditional CAS disciplines or from an approved interdisciplinary concentration. The concentration is drawn solely from courses offered within the College of Arts & Sciences and requires at least 16 credits of advanced coursework (200-level or above).

Free Electives - 14 credits

Free electives can be taken within any college or outside of the colleges (e.g. CINQ courses) and may contribute to a minor program. ENGR 160 or ENGR 200 may be counted as free electives.  CINQ courses may count for up to six credits toward the degree.
