USD Department of Engineering
Mechanical Engineering Program
Technical and Simulation Electives
The
Mechanical Engineering Program
requires a total of 3 elective courses, distributed
in 2
categories.
Student c
oursework does
not
double
-
count between cat
egories.
Technical Electives
Two courses required (6 credits)
At most one 300 level course is allowed.
The following courses are approved as technical electives:
o
MATH 311: Applied Mathematics for Science and Engineering
Math 311 can count
for
either
a Tech
Elective, or a Math Minor, but not both.
o
ENGR: 465 Forensic Engineering
o
ELEC: any 300 or 400 level course
(prereqs apply)
,
except
ELEC 491W,
492
.
o
ISyE: any 300 or 400 level course
(prereqs apply)
,
except
ISyE
330, 350, 391W,
492
.
o
MENG 410
Alternative Energy Systems
o
MENG 462
Topics in Fluid Mechanics
*
o
MENG 470 Finite Element Analysis
*
o
MENG 494: These are special topics that change
each semester. Past offerings
have included:
Computational Fluid Dynamics
*
Intro to Design Optimization
*
Prod
uct Design Using Six Sigma
Intro to Electronic Packaging
Mechanics of Polymers
Other courses are subject to approval by Dr. Huang.
NAVS students: see Dr. Huang.
Simulation Electives
One course required (3 credits)
The following courses are approved as s
imulation
electives*:
o
MENG 462 Topics in Fluid Mechanics
o
MENG 470 Finite Element Analysis
(FEA)
o
MENG 494 Computational Fluid Dynamics
(CFD)
o
MENG 494 Intro to Design Optimization
Other courses are subject to approval by Dr. Huang.
* All approved simula
tion electives are also approved as technical electives, but coursework does
not
double
-
count. For example, if a student takes MENG 410, MENG 470, and MENG 494
CFD, either of the latter two courses may count as the Simulation Elective. The other two woul
d
count as technical electives.
