Aerospace Systems Engineering, BS
Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Systems Engineering (490005BS)
Completion of degree requirements for the Aerospace Systems Engineering program requires that students complete several required semester-long cooperative education assignments with corporations or governmental entities in the aerospace industry. Based on aerospace industry requirements for full-time and cooperative education placement, full admission to the Aerospace Systems Engineering program is limited to citizens or permanent resident aliens of the United States.
The following information has official approval of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and The College of Engineering, but is intended only as a supplemental guide. Official degree requirements are established at the time of transfer and admission to the degree-granting college. Students should refer to the Degree Progress Report (DPR) which is definitive for graduation requirements. Completion of this degree within the identified time frame below is contingent upon many factors, including but not limited to: class availability, total number of required credits, work schedule, finances, family, course drops/withdrawals, successfully passing courses, prerequisites, among others. The transfer process is completed through an appointment with your academic advisor.
