The following tables present an outline of the sequence of
courses that are required to fulfill the requirements for a Bachelor of
Science in Mechanical Engineering. The requirement for transfer students
may vary slightly depending on whether or not the student transfers from
an institution with which Saint Martin’s has an articulation agreement.
Students are encouraged to meet with faculty advisors to work out a
graduation plan.
The courses and year/semester indicated here are to
give you an idea of the scope of the program and students may take
courses in slightly different times, depending on their aptitude and the
course offerings for that semester.
