Students in all majors are required to complete the University’s general education requirements (GER). While 40 credits of general education courses are required, some of these requirements will be met through the Mechanical Engineering curriculum. The following GER’s are not met through the ME curriculum and will need to be satisfied prior to graduation:
• Fundamental Studies:
○ Academic Writing (ENGL101)
○ Oral Communication
• Distributive Studies:
○ 2 History & Social Sciences
○ 2 Humanities
○ 1 Scholarship in Practice (2 Scholarship in Practice courses are required, but in most cases the ME curriculum satisfies 1 of these requirements)
• 2 I-Series (these may overlap with Distributive Studies courses)
• 2 Diversity (these may overlap with Distributive Studies courses)
