The following tables indicate: 1) the courses a ChBE student would take in their senior year in order to be eligible for the program and 2) the courses the student would take in their fifth year as an MSSE graduate student. Note that there is some flexibility regarding when one would take ENSE 626, ENSE 799, and the MSSE technical elective (e.g., it is possible to take 3 credits of ENSE 799 over the summer following their senior year). Courses shown below in black are unchanged from the ChBE B.S. plan of study. Courses shown in blue count only toward the MSSE degree, and those shown in red are classes that are double-counted towards the ChBE B.S. and ISR MSSE degrees.
