| Admission & Retention Policy | Academic | The Mechanical Engineering Department faculty have understood the need for maintaining a standard that enables students to be competitive in their coursework. The department has maintained a policy of minimum academic stands for many years. This policy, linked below, will continue to be enforced.
|  |
| Application to the Professional Program | Academic | The application for the professional program is a list of courses which must be completed before being fully accepted into the program. The upper division courses are restricted to students who have been admitted. A 2.8 grade point average and a C or higher in all courses are also application requirements. This form can be printed from the web site.

| Coatings & Polymeric Materials Curriculum | Curriculum | EFFECTIVE FALL 2011 - The Coatings and Polymeric Materials Option is a unique program available within the Mechanical Engineering curriculum, and offered at few other universities in the United States. The CPM concentration is ideal for students interested in the manufacture of paints and other coatings used to enhance and preserve items such as automobiles, ships, steel structures, machines and household appliances. In the junior and senior years of the program, students take specialized courses which cover the chemistry and physics of polymers and industrial coatings. In the laboratory, students get involved in the actual preparation, application, and testing of polymers and coatings. You may print this form from the web site. | |
| Coatings & Polymeric Materials Flowchart | Curriculum | EFFECTIVE FALL 2012 - The flowchart is a course plan which lists the sequence in which courses should be taken. The chart lists necessary courses and the prerequisites required. You may print this form from the web site.
