Additional example 4-year degree plans can be found at the bottom of the page. Please check your Degree Audit to make sure you are following the course sequence matching the year you began in the Aerospace Program.
Courses selected must meet humanities and social science requirements as detailed on this page. Up to six hours of humanities and social science credit can be taken pass/fail. You must submit a petition to request your humanities course be taken on a pass/fail basis.
Technical Electives
- Any ASEN course at the 4000 level or above that is not a required course can be used as a technical elective.
- A technical elective is generally a course in math, engineering, or science at the 3000-level or above. These classes are select 3000, 4000 and 5000-level math, science and engineering courses (with the exception of CSCI, ECEN, and PHYS where certain 2000-level courses are also accepted). Elective courses most likely to help your career development are ASEN, MATH, APPM, CSCI, ECEN, and PHYS courses. See degree audit for a list of approved technical electives.
- Independent study is acceptable for up to 6 credit hours of technical elective credit.
