2025-2026 Undergraduate Academic Catalog

Minors Biomedical Engineering Minor The biomedical engineering minor will help prepare computer, electrical, and mechanical engineering students for careers in the biomedical engineering field, graduate study in biomedical engineering, or medical school. While not required for the emphasis in biomedical engineering, students intending to pursue medical school should have two semesters of general chemistry and organic chemistry, as well as a semester of zoology, cell biology, and junior level biochemistry. Two of these courses* could be counted as electives in the biomedical engineering minor, and only 6–7 additional semester hours are required for the minor beyond the engineering major. Course requirements for the biomedical engineering minor involve 15.5–18 semester hours including: BIO/GBIO-XXXX Biology Elective...........................................3.5–4 GBIO-2010 Human Anatomy and Physiology I...............................4 EGGN-3610 Biomedical Engineering Systems..............................3 Choose one elective from the following................................2–4 EGGN-3710 Biomedical Engineering Research....................2 *Health Science elective....................................................3–4 3000/4000-level Engineering elective................................2–3 Choose one elective from the following....................................3 EGEE-4610 Medical Imaging................................................3 EGME-4560 Biomechanics and Biomaterials........................3 In addition, mechanical engineering students selecting the biomedical engineering minor may replace EGEE-3530 Electrical Machines in their major with a 3 credit-hour engineering technical elective, approved by the Dean or Assistant Dean. Computer Science Minor The computer science minor allows students to take a focused set of courses which will enable them to effectively employ programming within their own discipline. Proficiency in computer programming is a skill which can be a strong asset in virtually every discipline. Course requirements for the computer science minor involve 26 semester hours including: CS-1210 Introduction to Programming Using C++.........................3 CS-1220 Object-Oriented Design Using C++ ...............................3 CS-2210 Data Structures Using JAVA ...........................................3 CS-3410 Algorithms ......................................................................3 EGCP-1010 Digital Logic Design....................................................3 MATH-1705, 1715 Calculus I and II ...............................................8 Electives chosen from the following..........................................3 EGEE-3370 Probability and Random Processes for Engineers........................................................................... 3 MATH-2520 Discrete Math and Probability Principles for Computer Science........................................................3 Cyber Operations Minor The cyber operations minor allows students to take a focused set of computer science and cyber operations courses which will prepare them technically for jobs in programming and computer security. Course requirements for the cyber operations minor involve 18 semester hours including: CY-1000 Introduction to Cybersecurity...........................................3 CY-3320 Linux Systems Programming...........................................3 CY-3420 Cyber Defense.................................................................3 CY-4310 Cyber Operations.............................................................3 CY-4330 Software Security............................................................3 EGCP-4310 Computer Networks...................................................3 To qualify for this minor, computer science students must take one of the following courses beyond those required to complete the computer science major: Any CY2000+ course; EGCP-2120 Microcontrollers; other courses approved by the Dean of the School of Engineering and Computer Science. Special Programs Cooperative Education Program The cooperative education program option has been a traditional program option for engineering education for the last 100 years. The co-op program offers students who want to work an opportunity to gain industrial experience as part of their formal education. Co-op is the established program that the industry has developed with academic institutions to provide supervised work experiences for students. Engineering and computer science students who select this option will require an extra year to obtain their BS degree; they will receive a certificate stating that they have satisfactorily completed the co-op program option. Course requirements for the cooperative education program include: EGGN-3910 Co-Op I .....................................................................0 (or EGGN-3911 Co-Op IA.........................................................0) (and EGGN- 3912 Co-Op IB.....................................................0) EGGN-3920 Co-Op II ....................................................................0 (or EGGN-3921 Co-Op IIA.......................................................0) (and EGGN- 3922 Co-Op IIB....................................................0) EGGN-3930 Co-Op III ...................................................................0 (or EGGN-3931 Co-Op IIIA......................................................0) (and EGGN- 3932 Co-Op IIIB...................................................0) Page 158 2025–26 Undergraduate Academic Catalog School of Engineering and Computer Science
