All students admittedconditionally are required to earn a minimumgrade of ’B’ in each deficiency course toprogress to regular admission. Students failingto meet this requirement will be dismissed fromthe School of Graduate Studies.Non-Degree Graduate StatusTo pursue graduate engineering courses using thenon-degree graduate status, an application must firstbe submitted to the School of Engineering andTechnology. This is to ensure that the applicant hasthe required background for the desired course(s).If approved, the application will then be passed onto the School of Graduate Studies for processing.Up to nine semester hours of graduate credit may beearned while in the non-degree status.Program Requirements for the Non-Thesis OptionRequired ProgramSem.HoursGEN 601 Life-Cycle Design3EngineeringGEN 602 Product Assurance3EngineeringGEN 603 Analysis and Simulation3MethodsGEN 604 Test and Evaluation3EngineeringGEN 690 Material Engineering Project 3Discipline Specialization9CoursesApproved Electives 6Total 30Discipline Specialization Courses General EngineeringGEN 590 Special Topics 3GEN 600 Special Topics 3 All students will select at least three courses from Civil,Electrical or Mechanical Engineering, or General Engineeringfor their area of specialization, with the approval of theiradvisor.Civil EngineeringCE 501 Structural Steel Design 3CE 502 Reinforced Concrete Design 3CE 504 Hydraulic Engineering and 3DesignCE 506 Computer Analysis of3StructuresCE 508 Foundation Design 3CE 509 Public Health Engineering 3CE 510 Transportation Engineering 3and DesignCE 511 Urban Transportation3PlanningCE 512 Pavement Systems 3CE 513 Construction Management 3CE 514 Design of Timber Structures 3CE 550 Hydraulics of Open Channel 3FlowCE 555 Wastewater Treatment 3CE 556 Solid Waste Disposal 3CE 557 Hazardous WasteManagement3Electrical EngineeringEE 502 Electrical Machines 3EE 503 Feedback Systems Analysis 3and DesignEE 504 Communication Theory 3EE 510 Microwave Engineering 3EE 520 Power Systems I 3EE 521 Power Systems II 3EE 524 Advanced Digital Systems 3EE 525 High Performance3Computing and NetworksEE 531 Advanced Semiconductor3EngineeringEE 541 Digital Signal Processing 3EE 545 Advanced Electromagnetic3TheoryEE 551 Integrated Circuit Fabrication 3EE 552 Semiconductor3InstrumentationEE 555 Optimal Control Theory 3EE 556 Nonlinear Control Systems 3Mechanical Engineering ME 511 Power Plant Performance 3ME 512 Analysis and Synthesis ofGas Turbines andComponents3 Elective courses may be taken with the approval of advisor.69
