Any student, in consultation with the advisor or another faculty member, may
propose a unique combination of courses designed to meet particular career objectives.
A proposal must be submitted to the associate dean of the School of Engineering and
the Engineering Faculty Council for approval; it may be submitted as early as the second
semester of the freshman year and must be submitted before the beginning of the senior
year. The proposal must include a letter stating the students reasons for pursuing the
suggested program of study.
Bachelor of Science in Engineering/Master of Science Program. This program
provides students with an opportunity to plan a coordinated five-year program of
studies in the School of Engineering leading to both the Bachelor of Science in
Engineering and Master of Science degrees. Application for admission to this integrated
program may be made during the junior or senior year. Provisional admission to the
Graduate School may be granted when the student enrolls for the semester during
which the Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree requirements will be completed.
Graduate level courses during this period which are in excess of Bachelor of Science in
Engineering requirements may be credited toward fulfillment of the Master of Science
degree requirements.
International Honors Program. The International Honors Program is a certificate
program consisting of six to eight semester courses, depending on the foreign language
level proficiency of the student. All of the IHP course requirements may, with sufficiently
advanced planning, fulfill humanities and social sciences or approved elective
requirements which are encompassed in the schools accredited engineering programs.
