82.8.1 Nanoengineering Option

The emerging field of nanotechnology crosses many disciplines, including engineering, biology, chemistry, and physics. Structures and devices engineered on the scale of less than 100nm will have significant impact on how we create materials, process information, sense the environment, use energy, manufacture goodsandpracticemedicine.TheNanoengineeringOptionprovidesbroadskillssuitable for entry to the nanotechnology professions, combining core Electrical EngineeringandPhysicscourseswithadditionalinstructioninbiochemistryandchemistry,andspecializedinstructioninnanoelectronics,nanobioengineering,and nanofabrication.

82.9 Materials Engineering Materials Engineering is the discipline in Engineering in which materials are engineered and designed for their function in society. This is done by selecting the scale of the material from molecular or atomic, to nano, micro and macro and by choosing the class of material from soft to hard to composites while integrating this knowledge through the processing, structure, properties andperformance of materials. It is concerned with the production and engineering applications of metallic and non-metallic materials (polymers, ceramics,composites,electronicmaterialsandbiomaterials).Materialsengineersdevelop,modify, and use processes to convert raw materials to useful engineering materials with specified desirable properties. The discipline therefore includes aspects of materials production, materials processing and materials applications and design. Materials engineering embraces physics, chemistry and mechanics to understand processing and applications of materials. Graduates of theprogram find employment in all sectors of the materials cycle. The primary sector is raw materials processing and includes such industries as mineral processing, aluminium smelting and steelmaking. The next sector ismanufacturing andextends from the rolling of the metals to the materials aspects of manufacturing various engineered products in the aerospace, automotive, electronics, photonics, and petrochemical industries. The final sector includes the service industries with such specialities as corrosion, wear, fracture mechanics and failure investigation. This sector would also include the recycling industries. The undergraduate Materials Engineering program, the only one of its kind in the prairie provinces, includes a set of core materials engineeringcoursesemphasizingunderlyingprinciplesandtheirengineeringapplications.With the program electives it is possible for the students to go into more depth in particular areas of interest, e.g., biomaterials, functional materials, mineral processing and extractive metallurgy, polymer materials and structural materials.

82.10.1 Areas of Study

Solid Mechanics and Dynamics Mechanical engineers are involved in the design of structures and mechanical components to safely withstand normal working stresses.Manystructures andmachines are also subjected to additional stresses causedbyvibrations, for example, due to the imbalance in a compressor or engine, and these effects can be critical for their safe use. Stress analysis predicts the internal loads in a component and allows the designer to select materials and shapes suitable for the service the component will experience. Traditional materials such as steel and aluminium as well as recently developed materials such as ceramics and fibre-reinforced composites are considered to optimize the component’sperformance.

Fluid Mechanics Fluidmechanics isconcernedwith themotionsof liquidsandgasesandthemachinerythatcausesthatmotion(e.g.,pumps)orusesit(e.g.,windmills).Applications include acoustics, aerodynamics, meteorology, pollutant dispersion, pumps, fans, turbines, pipelines, and lubrication.

Thermodynamics Applied thermodynamics is the study of energy conversion from one form to another. A typical application is electricity production. Energy from the combustionof fuels like coal, oil, ornatural gas isused toheat a fluid suchas air or water, and then the fluid is expanded through machinery to produce mechanicalworkanddriveagenerator. Theelectricityproduced is aneasilytransported form of energy that can be used at locations remote to the original energysource.Mechanicalengineerswithaspecializationinthermodynamicsdesign and improve power plants, engines, heat exchangers, and other forms of equipment.Specificexamplesincludeheating,ventilationandairconditioningsystems for living space and industrial processes, use of alternate fuels in engines, and reducing pollution from internal combustion engines.

Design The design process starts with recognizing a need for a new product,device, or industrial process and then carries on to defining the problem to be solved,gatheringnecessaryinformation,performingtherequiredanalysisandoptimization, building prototypes, and evaluating different concepts. There isusually no single correct solution for a given design problem as different designs may all solve the same problem. Some designs are better than others, as they may be lighter or more efficient or cost less, so that by constant refinement and iteration throughout the design process, acceptable designs can be made.

Engineering Management Many engineering graduates spend a significant part of their career as managers of plants, companies, or other engineers. Engineering management bridges the gap between engineering and management. These engineers deal with areas such as management of engineering processes, engineering economics,operationsmanagement,qualityimprovement,qualitycontrol,andthe use of computers in business.

82.10.2 Biomedical Option in Mechanical Engineering

Applications of mechanical engineering to biomedical problems range from understanding the intricacies of fluid flows in the heart and lungs to the design of artificial joints, implants, orthopedic devices, andmedical equipment andinstrumentation. Exciting opportunities exist for innovative solutions to numerous health care problems by applying knowledge containedwithin the disciplineof mechanical engineering. Such solutions typically require interdisciplinaryteamsforwhichthebroadbackgroundinfundamentalsobtainedinmechanicalengineeringisanasset.Examplesincludetheever-increasinguseofmechanicalsystems to assist or replace various portions of the anatomy, and the application of system modeling and design methods in areas from diagnosis to aids for rehabilitation. For students considering a career in this expanding area, the Department of Mechanical Engineering offers two choices within its program.

83.3 Academic Regulations(1) Admissions: The Faculty of Engineering admits students into a first- or

qualifying-yearprogramandintospecializedprogramsatthesecond-yearlevel.Highschoolstudentsareonlyadmittedintothequalifying(first)year.All admissions are on a competitive basis.

Admissions into the firstorqualifyingyearprogram includestudentswhoarecomingdirectlyfromhighschoolandstudentswithlessthan30.0engineering units of postsecondary transfer credit. On an annual basis,the minimum high school average for students entering directly from high school is reviewed andmay be adjusted to reflect demand and spaceavailability. Thisaverage iscalculatedacross the five requiredadmissionsubjects(AlbertaGrade12Chemistry30,English30-1,Mathematics30-1,Mathematics31andPhysics30ortheirequivalent),andforthepastseveralyears it has been 85.0% or above.

There is a maximum number of students which can be accommodated in the first or qualifying year program. Spaces available after all eligibleapplicants from high school have been admitted are offered to students with postsecondary transfer credit. Factors in selecting students from this group for admission are academic performance and the specific courses which earn transfer credit.

The Faculty offers a number of engineering degree program choices as indicated below:

Chemical ChemicalProcessControlOption ChemicalBiomedicalOption Civil CivilEnvironmentalOption CivilBiomedicalOption* Computer ComputerSoftwareOption ComputerNanoscaleSystemDesignOption Electrical ElectricalBiomedicalOption* ElectricalNanoengineeringOption EngineeringPhysics* EngineeringPhysicsNanoengineeringOption* Mechanical MechanicalBiomedicalOption** Materials MaterialsBiomedicalOption MaterialsNanoandFunctionalMaterialsOption Mining Petroleum MostoftheseprogramsareofferedinboththeTraditionalandCo-op

Students admitted to the qualifying year must normally qualify fora specialized program in notmore than two terms (one year). Studentsentering directly from high school or with less than 15.0 units of transfer creditmay,subjecttospaceavailability,beallowedanadditionaltwoterms(oneyear)toqualify.Studentsenteringwith15.0ormoreunitsoftransfercreditmustqualifyinnotmorethantwoterms(oneyear).Inordertoqualify,astudentmustbeinsatisfactorystandingafterFall/Winterandhavecreditinatleast30.0units(excludingENGG100/101)ofcoursestransferabletoaspecializedprogram.Astudentwhoisofferedadmissiontoaspecializedprogramaftertwotermshasqualifiedandmaynotcontinueasaqualifyingstudent.StudentswhofailtoqualifywithintheindicatednumberoftermsarerequiredtowithdrawandarenotnormallyreadmittedtotheFaculty.

Students are admitted to a specialized programbased first of all onacademicperformanceinthefirstorqualifyingyearandsecondlyontheirprogram preferences. These preferences are communicated by completing aProgramSelectionForm(PSF).Allstudentsinthequalifyingyear,andnewapplicants,mustcompletethePSFwhichisaccessedthroughtheFacultyweb site. All applicants with previous postsecondary education must submit

aPSF.Applicantswhodonothavesufficienttransfercreditforadmissiontoasecondyearprogram(tobedeterminedbytheFaculty)maybeconsideredforaqualifyingyear.

Studentswhoareofferedadmissiontooneofthespecializedprogramsmust register in the Fall and/or Winter Term immediately following;otherwise they must reapply and again compete for a space in these programs.

Spaces in each specialized program are reserved for students whodo not have an undergraduate engineering degree. Students who already hold an undergraduate engineering degree are not eligible for admission to a second undergraduate program in the Faculty. Study of a different engineering discipline can be done through registration as a Special Student or registration in a graduate program.

(2) Engineering Graduation Average

a. TheEngineeringGraduationAverage(EGA)isbasedonthefinalfouracademicterms.Ifthecourseloadinthesetermstotalslessthan70.0units,additionaltermswillbeincludedinthecalculationoftheEGAasrequiredtoreachatotalofat least70.0units.The70.0units includecourses designated as extra to degree. Grades for courses taken inSpring/SummerarenotincludedintheEGAunlessthisisascheduledtermwithinthestudent’sdegreeprogram.

b. Requirements to Graduate: To graduate, a student musti) passallcoursesrequiredbythespecificprogram;ii) haveanEngineeringGraduationAverageof2.0orgreater;iii) beinsatisfactoryacademicstanding,i.e.,haveaFall/WinterGPAof

If thestudent’sEGAandFall/WinterGPAfollowingthistermarenotboth2.0orgreater,thestudentwillnotqualifyforadegreeandwillnotbeallowedtocontinueintheFaculty.

The preceding paragraph also applies to any student who has completed allcourserequirementsandchoosestoreturnforanextraterm.ThecourseswhichthestudenttakesinthissubsequenttermaretobespecifiedbytheDean.

(3) Time Limit for Completion of Degree: All students must complete theirdegree requirementswithin72months from the timeof their initialadmissiontoaspecializeddegreeprograminEngineering.

The time measurement starts at the beginning of the term following a student’sinitialadmissiontoaspecializeddegreeprograminEngineering.This time limit includes all time during which a student is not in attendance either by personal choice or as a result of suspension or a requirementto withdraw. When a student encounters special circumstances that necessitate an absence from the University for an extended period of time, the student may apply to the Faculty for an extension to the degree time limit. Such an application must be made prior to the absence or at the earliest opportunity. Extensions are not granted for cases where a student has spent time on withdrawal or suspension.

(4) Course Load

a. Students in specialized degree programs are not required to meetanyminimumcourse load requirement except as noted in §83.3(6)b.butmustmeetthedegreetimelimitasspecifiedin§83.3(3).Acourseloadlessthanthatrequiredtomaintainfulltimestatus,asdefinedin§240, may have scholarship eligibility, income tax and student loanimplications.

b. Studentsintheirqualifyingyearmaynotnormallytakeacourseloadwith fewer than 37.0 units in Fall/Winter, excluding the 2.0 units forENGG100/101.

(5) Courses Outside of Degree Requirements Courseswhicharetakeninadditiontoastudent’sdegreerequirements

aredesignated “Not forDegreeCredit” or “Extra toDegree”. SinceGPAcalculations include the grades earned in these non degree courses, students musts obtain prior written approval from their Department before registering in such courses unless it is a requirement imposed by theFaculty.OnlystudentswhoseGPAintheimmediatelyprecedingtermis2.5or above will receive approval from their Department. These courses must beatthe200-levelorabove.Notallcourseswillbeconsidered.Seewww.engineering.ualberta.ca for more information. Students who have registered in courses outside their degree program without formal approval will be withdrawn from these courses and are responsible for any associated fees.

84.6 Complementary Studies Electives To better understand the role of Engineering within a broader social context, all programs require an element of complementary studies consisting of thehumanities, social sciences, arts, management, engineering economics and communications. Aspects of these topics are covered in mandatory courses, but each program contains complementary studies electives so that students may explore areas of particular interest. Notwithstanding this, the CanadianEngineering Accreditation Board requires that programs include exposureto the central thought processes of thehumanities and social sciences.OneComplementary Studies Electivemust be taken from List 1, normally in theFirstYearoftheprogram.FurtherComplementaryStudiesElectivesmustbeatthe200-leveloraboveandshouldbeselectedfromList2(see§231forcoursedescriptionsandprerequisites).Notethatinsomecases,acoursemayappearbothonacomplementarystudies listandasaprogramrequiredorprogramelective course.

85.2 Registration in Engineering Courses by Students in Other Faculties

Although the Faculty of Engineering is a restricted enrolment Faculty, it is possible for students registered in other Faculties to enrol in a limited number of Engineering courses. However, students not registered in the Faculty ofEngineering must obtain permission to enrol in Engineering courses. The appropriate Department Chair in the Faculty of Engineering is authorized togrant permission.

Note:ThisrequirementdoesnotapplytostudentsinprogramsthatincludeEngineering courses as a formal part of the program.
