The engineering and non-departmental electives may be taken in any order, but consideration should be given to the affect this will have on selection of a capstone design project in EG 497-498 during the senior year. The senior design topic must be derived from the 400-level engineering courses that have been taken prior to beginning the senior design sequence. These courses form the technical basis for the project. The junior and senior years should be planned during the second semester sophomore year when the students choose between either Materials Engineering or Mechanical Engineering.

Materials Engineering:

EG 452 Electrical and Magnetic Properties of Materials
EG 453 Structure of Solids
EG 454 Mechanical Properties of Materials
EG 455 Transformations in Solids
