To qualify for an Engineering Studies Concentration, a student must complete 12 required engineering courses and 4 mathematics / science courses listed below.  A specific curriculum track is assigned to students pursuing the Engineering Studies Concentration.  The track integrates engineering courses to satisfy concentration electives in the BSB degree program. 

Students who qualify may have mathematics and science courses required for the concentration substituted for required business major courses (e.g., MA-262 Probability and Statistics may replace MA-340 Business Statistics).  Note that additional time may be needed to complete all of the concentration requirements if students are missing any prerequisites.  Interested students should contact the BSB program director for clarification of the extent to which the concentration may be integrated into the BSB program.
