Minor in Aerospace Engineering

MAE Students

A minor in Aerospace Engineering requires at least 22 credit hours and a minimum overal GPA of 2.0 in all courses. The student will be responsible for any prerequisites to required courses.  Only 6 hours of transfer work may apply to the minor.  This minor is for non-mechanical engineering majors.

Required courses are as follows:
