Graduation Flowchart

The department provides Graduation Plans (see Flow Charts below) to help you plan your course of study efficiently. These plans:

• List graduation requirements, based on your year of admission.
• Show how it is possible to complete all requirements in eight semesters (based on starting in a fall semester). Using BYU MyMAP/Plan Courses you should lay out a personal graduation plan based on your needs and preferences. You should continually update the plan so that you stay on track.

TRACK PROGRESS WITH MYMAP

When you are admitted to the Professional Program, use BYU MyMap/Plan Courses to lay out your plan to complete all graduation requirements in your desired time frame. Then use BYU MyMap/Student Progress to track your progress.

Sometimes, changes in the ME curriculum may complicate fulfilling original requirements, e.g., course number can change, or a required class may no longer be offered. The Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate Advisor can help you resolve such discrepancies.
