Earning a Bachelor of Science in interdisciplinary engineering allows students to develop unique skill sets and specialize in areas that may not be provided in a traditional department degree program. Such specializations may be driven by emerging technical fields or by a student’s desire to have an immersive interdisciplinary experience. Multidisciplinary students graduate with a specific set of skills resulting from a unique program of study.
The Bachelor of Science in interdisciplinary engineering needs 66 credit hours of standard components and 62 credit hours of interdisciplinary specialization. The 66 standard credits include:
- common first-year engineering courses
- engineering ethics
- an English/communication course
- 2 semesters of senior capstone design
- 3 additional math courses beyond first-year courses (from an approved list)
- 18 credits of undergraduate core curriculum.
The 62 remaining credits of specialization may either be determined through a pre-approved program of study or through a student-led design with approval from the Interdisciplinary Engineering Advisory Committee.
