Manufacturing/Mechanical Engineering
Students with an interest in both areas can pursue a dual BSE program in Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering and thus can earn two BSE degrees at the same time:
- BSE degree in Manufacturing Engineering
- BSE degree in Mechanical Engineering
The dual degree program requires specified coursework that equals a minimum of 143 total credits.
Dearborn Discovery Core (General Education)
All students must satisfy the University’s Dearborn Discovery Core requirements, in addition to the requirements for the major
