CHME Elective Courses
The CHME elective requirements in all CHME degree programs are fulfilled by the list of courses below (400-level for BSCHE, 500-level for MSCHE and Ph D where cross-listed). This list is not as complete as found in the Undergraduate Catalog because these are the courses that will continued to be taught with some regularity in the short-term. Other elective courses found in the catalog but not listed below may not be taught again, and will eventually be removed from the catalog if that is the case.
