Technical Electives

Thermofluids students take a total of twelve credits of technical electives over the course of their degree. Nine of these credits must be selected from the list below; the remaining three credits may be selected from either this list, the general program technical elective list, or from courses that are core in the general program but not for thermofluids students.

Please note that this list is subject to change from year to year, and that not all technical electives are offered all years. Some CHBE courses may have prerequisite requirements that you do not meet - contact the course instructor to see if your preparation is appropriate. Also note that naval architecture courses are in blue.
