Courses selected must meet humanities and social science requirements as detailed . Up to six hours of humanities and social science credit can be taken pass/fail. You must submit a petitionÌýto request your humanities course be taken on a pass/fail basis. Please check your Degree Audit to make sure you are following the course sequence from the year that you matriculated into the Aerospace Program.

Professional Area Electives

• Any ASEN course at the 4000 level or above that is not a required course can be used as a professional area elective.
• A professional area 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, CSCI, ECEN, and physics courses. It is suggested you secure advance approval for professional area elective courses from yourÌý advisor.
• Independent study is acceptable for up to 6 credit hours of professional area elective credit.
