Minor in Engineering Science |
|
The Minor in Engineering Science is open to all registered undergraduate Brock students who have completed at least five credits in post-secondary education with a 70 percent average or higher. Students who transfer to Brock from another institution with at least five equivalent credits accepted by a departmental review will also be considered.
Students wishing to minor in Engineering Science are required to complete a change of major request (see Office of the Registrar).
The Minor in Engineering Science is a limited enrolment program. ENGS courses beyond the 100 level will be restricted to students accepted into the Minor.
Students wishing to obtain the minor must complete FMSC 1P00 if they do not otherwise have any previous MATH credit.
To complete a Minor in Engineering Science students must complete four full credits. Among the credits chosen, at least two credits must be from ENGS courses and at least two credits of the total must be from courses offered from the Faculty of Mathematics and Science.
Students must satisfy the following requirements with a minimum 70 percent average:
