Minors and Concentrations
A minor is a cohesive set of courses in a sub-specialty that differs from one's major. Minors normally require completion of five to seven courses in the subject area. Students may double-count courses for credit against both majors and minors. If electives are chosen carefully, minors can often be integrated into the program requirements. Nearly half of all engineering students have at least one minor, many have two or three.
Within the Department of Mechanical Engineering we offer a minor in biomedical engineering. In addition, the department offers a concentration in aerospace engineering.
