An understanding of mechanical behavior is important to both the development of new materials and the selection of appropriate materials for many applications. The mechanical behavior of materials is best investigated and understood by integrating solid mechanics with the microstructural basis of deformation and fracture. The purpose of this minor is to allow a formal basis for students to pursue an integrated approach to the mechanical behavior of material. Although this minor is open to all CIT students, only students in the department of Civil Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering and Mechanical Engineering can take advantage of the double counting permitted for some courses in their department majors. Students in other departments may have difficulty in fulfilling the requirements for the minor in four years. Director
The minor requires six courses: three mechanics courses and three materials science courses. For a list of course options, click here and go to Mechanical Behavior Minor. |
Majors Undergraduate students may earn a Bachelor of Science degree in the following disciplines: Double majors can be pursued (with one of the above five disciplines) in: Minors Undergraduate engineering students can complete an interdisciplinary Designated Minor. A student is free, but not required, to pursue a designated minor from the following list: Non-engineering students can pursue minors in the following areas:
