This curriculum provides a strong fundamental background in
engineering and applied science with emphasis on aircraft and space
flight engineering. The program is designed to give the student a
basic engineering education applicable to related engineering
disciplines including graduate study. As many as 15 hours in free and
technical electives can be used to provide a diversified program of
study.
The curriculum requires 134 hours for graduation. A curriculum
revision was pending at the time of publication. See a departmental
adviser for more information.

footnote 1. Each student must satisfy the social sciences and
humanities requirements of the College of Engineering. Students
entering in fall 1994 and later must also satisfy the campus general
education requirements for social sciences and humanities.
footnote 2. EIective credits totaling 24 hours are required for
graduation. These electives must contain at least 6 hours from List A
below and 3 hours from List B. In addition, credit is required in at
least one 300-level aeronautical and astronautical engineering
course. A total of 6 hours of electives are free electives. The
remaining are technical electives.
