Technology in Society Requirement  (1 course required; see ughb.stanford.edu, Approved Courses page for list)

NOTES

* All courses taken for the major must be taken for a letter grade if this option is offered by the instructor, and can be listed under only one category (no double-counting of course units is allowed).
* Minimum Combined Grade Point Average for all courses in Engineering Topics (Fundamental and Depth courses) is 2.0.
* Transfer and AP credits in Math, Science, Funds., & TIS must be approved by the SoE Dean's office. Transfer credits in Mechanical Engineering Depth must be approved by the Advisor. Transfer credit information and petitions are available at http://ughb.stanford.edu/transfer.html.
* All students completing BSME 1.0 program will utilize the corresponding program sheet AY 17-18 or earlier.
(1) Must take one calculus-based Statistics course: CME 106, STATS 110 or STATS 116; and one ODE course: CME 102 or MATH 53.
(2) Must include a full year (3 quarters) in either Chemistry or calculus-based Physics, plus one quarter in the other. A depth in chemistry is fulfilled by taking CHEM 31+33+ a higher level course. CHEM31A/B counts as one quarter (though all 8-10 units may be counted); CHEM 31M recommended. If opting for a depth in Chemistry, a Physics 40 course must be taken to fulfill the physics requirement; Physics 20 courses not allowed. Science + Math combined must = 45 units min.
 

Mechanical Engineering Program Sheet (continued)
Engineering Topics (Fundamentals + Depth combined must equal 68 units. See note 3)

 

Engineering Fundamentals
Select ENGR 14 and one or CS 106A or AP Computer Science Credits:
ENGR 14 CS 106A AP Computer Science
           
Changes to the Engineering Fundamentals requirements must be petitioned to the School of Engineering.
Choose the number of additional Engineering Fundamental electives to add:
           

Note:

  • The Engineering Fundamentals are a breadth requirement. As such, only one course from each set of courses:
    25B/25E, 40A+B/40M/40P, 50/50E/50M, and 70A/70B/70X may be used to fulfill this requirement.

NOTES (continued from page 1)

(3) In order to satisfy ABET requirements for graduation, the ME major must take enough courses so that the combined units from Fundamentals & Depth courses add up to a minimum of 68 units.
(4) ME 170A and ME 170B are a 2-quarter Capstone Design Sequence and must be taken in consecutive quarters.
(5) ME 170A and ME 170B fulfill the Writing in the Major (WIM) requirement.
(6) A comprehensive list of concentration and concentration/technical elective courses can be found on the ME major page at UGHB.stanford.edu. Concentration Elective must come from student's Concentration area. Additional Technical Electives may come from the selected concentration or another area of concentration. If using an equivalent course from the BSME 1.0 core, write the course number in the "transfer" box.
