Additional ME Degree Requirements

All ME students must take at least one technical elective in the each of the three stems from UND.

Aerospace concentration requires three courses from the approved list to be taken from UND.

In addition to the normal transfer credit requirements, students in Mechanical Engineering must

complete a minimum of 21 credit hours of 300-level or higher coursework in Mechanical

Engineering at UND, including: ME 418&418L Manufacturing Processes, ME 480 Senior Seminar,

ME 483 Mechanical Measurements Laboratory, ME 487& ME 488 Senior Design.

All transfer credits must be completed with a grade of ‘C’ or better.

Milestones in the ME Curriculum

The first milestone in any engineering curriculum is successful completion of Calculus I (MATH 165). It is a prerequisite for most engineering coursework and should be completed as soon as possible.

Every semester – plan to attend the STEM day of the Career Fair. Dress up, put together a current resume (contact Career Services - https://www1.und.edu/student-life/careers/ to make an appointment for them to review and polish it), and use the Fairs as opportunities to network, learn about current opportunities, and practice for the time when you are looking for either a co‐op placement or new job.

By March 1 each year ‐ complete the CEM scholarship application. This is done electronically through Scholarship Central ‐ https://und.academicworks.com. The system will automatically link you to scholarships within CEM and across the campus for which you are eligible. You will only be considered if you apply.

During spring registration of your sophomore year – you should have completed the requirements to be admitted to the Professional Degree Program and should note it on your Advising Sheet. This must be completed to be eligible to take any 300 or 400‐level ENGR or ME course (with the exceptions of ME 306, ME 341, and ENGR 460).

End of your sophomore year ‐ consider a co‐op (ME 397) or internship experience. You can find more information about participating employers at the UND Career Services website, or the Fall or Spring UND Career Fair. Or feel free to contact other employers on your own.

At least three semesters prior to graduation – you should have completed or be enrolled in a thermal sciences elective or ME 474. You should also have completed or be enrolled in ME 322 and ME 323. These are two of the prerequisites for ME 487 (fall‐only course) which is a prerequisite for ME 488 (spring‐only course). Note that the prerequisites for ME 487/488 will not be waived – if you have not completed them on time, you will have to wait an additional year before the Senior Design sequence begins again.

2. Open-toed shoes must never be worn in the lab. Additionally, soft-toed or cloth shoes which burn

should not be worn when welding, cutting, or working with molten metals.

3. No loose clothing or unsecured long hair allowed in shop areas.

4. Flammable clothing such as nylon, which tends to melt, should not be worn in the laboratory.

5. Many processes such as working with chemicals or furnaces require the use of personal protective

equipment (PPE). Examples of PPE include respirators, gloves, aprons, as well as head, eye and foot

protection. You must wear PPE when it is required.

6. Never conduct potentially hazard lab work by yourself, use the buddy system to help ensure safety.

7. Equipment must not be operated without the permission of the person in charge of the area.

8. Equipment must not be operated without prior instruction on proper operation.

9. Familiarize yourself with the location of the emergency equipment. Specifically, know the location

of the fire extinguishers, first aid kits, emergency showers, and emergency eyewash stations.

10. Know the location of the nearest exits, whether primary or emergency. Never obstruct these exits.

11. In case of an emergency, seek the appropriate emergency help immediately (ie. fire dept., ambulance,

police) by dialing 911. Report the incident, as well as any “near miss/close call” incidents, to the lab

supervisor as soon as possible. The lab supervisor will contact the department chair and the safety

officer. Appropriate paperwork must also be filled out as directed.

12. No horseplay will be tolerated in the laboratory!

13. Never eat, drink, or use tobacco products in the laboratory.

CEM/ME Online Exam Proctoring

Ground Rules

1. All ME exams will be available to DEDP students for a maximum of 24 hours

2. All Exams must be completed using ProctorU*

3. It is left to the discretion of the individual faculty member of the course for makeup exam

policy. Special arrangements for military personnel and others in unique circumstances may

be available. All exceptions must be requested 2-weeks prior to the scheduled exam date.

Proctor U requirements

CEM uses ProctorU as the default option starting Fall 2019 for all engineering courses. It is important to

note, that this service will be paid for by the university, which means that there is no proctoring fee for

students. However, you will need to have access to the appropriate technology to complete the PDF style

exams. We are aware that this transition is quick and that some students may only have one or two

semesters remaining to graduate, so the college has developed a waiver policy for students who fulfill the

following criteria:

• Students who will be graduating by Summer 2020 (as confirmed by advisor) may apply for the

waiver so they will not need to buy new equipment.

• Continuing students using test center, including those certified by the National Collegiate Testing

Association (NCTA), this option will be discontinued by summer of 2020.

To be approved for this waiver, your proctor must meet either of the following criteria:

o College or University testing center

o Should be listed on this NCTA certified proctor list:

https://ncta.memberclicks.net/find-a-cctc-participant

***Please note: NO proctors will be accepted outside of these parameters and NO exemption waivers will

be accepted for courses outside the College of Engineering and Mines.

If you meet these criteria, you would need to fill out the waiver two weeks before your first scheduled exam

and it would be reviewed for approval. If you do not meet the minimum qualifications for the waiver, you

would need to adhere to the new proctoring policy through ProctorU and acquire the appropriate

technology; which includes a touch screen laptop compatible with a stylus, a stylus, external webcam on a

tripod or gooseneck.

Starting Fall of 2020, you will need to transition completely to ProctorU as we will no longer be able to

provide waivers.

Warning

If the proctoring system is found to be tampered with or circumvented, the student will be subject to any or

all of the following disciplinary actions:

- Receive a zero for the exam

- Fail the course

- Be terminated from the program

- Face scholastic dishonesty disciplinary actions recommended by the UND Code of Student Life
