The Henry Samueli School of Engineering, UC Irvine
Undergraduate Student Site
2005-2006 Aerospace Engineering Bachelor of Science Degree Requirements
Mathematics and Basic Science Courses: Mathematics 2A-B, 2D, 2J, 3D, and 2E; Chemistry 1A-B and 1LA-LB; Physics 7A-B-D-E, 7LA-LB-LD, 52A.
Engineering Topics Courses: Students must complete a minimum of 24 units of engineering design.
- Core Courses: ENGR54, ENGR150, EECS70A, MAE10, MAE30, MAE80, MAE91, MAE106, MAE108, MAE112, MAE120, MAE130A, MAE130B, MAE135, MAE136, MAE140, MAE146, MAE157, MAE158, MAE159, MAE170, and MAE175.
- Engineering Elective Courses: Students select, with the approval of a faculty advisor, a minimum of 4 units of engineering electives, incorporating at least 1 unit of design.
At most an aggregate total of 4 units of 199 or H199 courses may be used to satisfy degree requirements.
- (The nominal Aerospace Engineering program will require 193 units of courses to satisfy all university and major requirements. Because each student comes to UCI with a different level of preparation, the actual number of units will vary.)
Design unit values are indicated at the end of each course description. The faculty advisors and the Undergraduate Student Affairs Office can provide necessary guidance for satisfying the design requirements. Selection of elective courses must be approved by the student's faculty advisor and the departmental undergradute advisor.
Program of Study
The sample program of study chart showin is typical for the major in Aerospace Engineering. This program is based upon a set of prerequisites, beginning with adequate preparation in high school mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Students who are not adequately prepared, or who wish to make changes in the sequence for other reasons, must have their programs approved by their faculty advisor. Aerospace Engineering majors must consult at least once every year with the academic counselors in the Student Affairs Office and with their faculty advisor.
