Engineering electives (21 credit hours)

Courses must be selected from at least two of the three available specializations of courses. A minimum of twelve credits must be taken from of one specialization as follows:

Design specialization: a minimum of nine credits from courses in group A of the Design specialization and the remaining three credits from courses in either group of the specialization.

Industrial specialization: a minimum of six credits from group A courses of the Industrial specialization and six credits from its group B courses.

Materials and Manufacturing specialization: a minimum of six credits from group A courses of the Material and Manufacturing specialization and six from its group B courses.

In addition, a minimum of six credits must be taken from another area of specialization and should be selected from group A of the 3 specializations or the common group B of Materials and Manufacturing and Industrial specializations.

Students opting for double specializations will take a minimum of twenty four credits, equally divided between the two areas such that the minimum requirements of each area of specialization are satisfied.
