Minor in Environmental Engineering Science The Minor in Environmental Engineering Science may be earned by students receiving any of the Bachelor of Science degrees offered by the McKelvey School of Engineering, or the Environmental Studies or Earth, Environmental, and Planetary Sciences degrees offered by the College of Arts & Sciences. The Department of Energy, Environmental & Chemical Engineering sponsors an undergraduate minor in Environmental Engineering Science. This 21-unit program prepares students to seek an entry-level position as an environmental engineer, scientist, or analyst. The minor also provides a solid foundation for undertaking graduate study in environmental engineering. Information and requirements (.pdf) Minor in Materials Science & Engineering Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) is an interdisciplinary field that applies the fundamental knowledge of the physical sciences to create engineering innovations. In general, &＃8220;engineering&＃8221; implies actively designing a system for a given application; MSE enables the design of systems from the atoms up. MSE focuses on the interrelationship between a materials structure, from the subatomic- to the macro-scale, and the properties or behaviors that the material exhibits. Materials synthesis and processing techniques enable engineers to control and change the material structure in order to obtain the desired properties. Understanding the structure-properties-processing relationship requires a fundamental understanding of the underlying chemistry and physics, and is key to obtaining materials with the desired performance for engineering applications in a wide variety of fields, from computing to medicine to energy. The minor in MSE builds upon the fundamental insights into material structure and properties gained through required introductory courses in chemistry and materials science. Students then select at least two courses from specialization &＃8220;pick lists&＃8221; to gain depth in a particular application area. A free elective provides the opportunity to gain additional depth in the fundamentals or exposure to another application area. Requirements for the minor in MSE: 3 required course, 2 courses from specialization &＃8220;pick lists&＃8221;, 1 free elective (17 credits). Some courses have prerequisites. Students will be approved for the minor after discussing appropriate course selection with the adviser for the minor. Required courses : Chem 111A General Chemistry I (3 credits) Chem 151 General Chemistry Laboratory I (2 credits) MEMS 3610 Materials Science (3 credits) OR EECE 305 Materials Science (3 credits) Read more about the Materials Science and Engineering minor. Pick list (.pdf) For more information contact the adviser for the Minor in Materials Science and Engineering: Professor Kathy Flores&＃160;(MEMS). Minor in Mechanical Engineering The Minor in Mechanical Engineering complements studies in a field related to mechanical engineering, such as biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, physics, chemistry, or architecture. The minor is intended to provide students with a credential that could enhance their opportunities for employment or graduate study. Completion of the minor demonstrates that the student has pursued a structured program approved by the faculty of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science. Students pursuing the Minor in Mechanical Engineering must complete a total of 15 units of coursework as described below. Courses selected for the minor program may count toward program requirements of the student&＃8217;s major (see examples below). The subjects selected for a Minor in Mechanical Engineering are expected to constitute a coherent program within the field of mechanical engineering. Courses taken under the pass/fail grading option cannot be used for a minor program.

Minor in Mechatronics Advancements in power electronics, electronic sensors, computer hardware and software have led to an expanding role for &＃8220;smart&＃8221; systems, which combine electronic and mechanical components. Automotive examples illustrate this point. The replacement of carburetors by fuel injection systems is almost universal, and hybrid/electric cars are replacing traditional automobiles. Not only are auxiliary devices such as fuel pumps, air bags, and air-conditioner compressors, but fundamental components such as intake and outtake valves will soon be driven by electric motors controlled by microprocessors. The internal combustion engine itself may be replaced by fuel cells and motors. Medical devices, micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), robots, fly-by-wire aircraft, and wind turbines all also rely on electronic sensing of mechanical parameters and actuation of motion. These examples suggest strongly that engineers who are adept in the design, analysis, and simulation of electro-mechanical systems will be in demand. The Minor in Mechatronics is created to encourage our students to study this important subject and provide recognition to those who do so. This program is primarily designed for students in the ESE and MEMS departments and has been approved by the two departments. It is available for others as well. For more information, contact the director of the Mechatronics Minor Program, Dennis Mell (ESE), or visit the Minor in Mechatronics webpage. Minor in Nanoscale Science & Engineering This minor will enhance students&＃8217; knowledge and skills in the area of nanotechnology. The minor consists of courses, labs, and a project with a participating faculty in the Nanotechnology minor program. The minor may be earned by any undergraduate student pursuing an Engineering or Arts & Sciences (Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Environmental Studies, Pre-Med) major. For more information and requirements, visit the Department of Energy, Environmental & Chemical Engineering or contact a member of the Committee to Oversee Nanotechnology Minor: Professor Rohan Mishra (MEMS, Coordinator) or Professor Elijah Thimsen&＃160;(EECE). Information and requirements (.pdf) Minor in Robotics Robotic systems have wide application in modern technology and manufacturing. Robots can vary in complexity and use, from microrobots for surgical procedures to moderate-size robots common in manufacturing and undersea exploration to macrorobots used for disposal of nuclear wastes and as arms on space-station modules. The program designed for a Minor in Robotics provides a fundamental understanding of robotic operation and preliminary training in design and use of robots.
