| Co-op Information for Materials Science and Engineering Majors Many courses in the Materials Science and Engineering Department are offered only once a year and some course have to be taken in sequence. Therefore, students going to Co-op require a careful planning. Probably the best time for students to go to Co-op would be the third year, either fall or spring. Assuming that the student are in the normal pace, requiring four years (or eight semesters) to complete the requirements for the BS degree at Rensselaer, an example of the acceptable schedule is given below. First two years (four semesters) – normal schedule shown in the catalogue. Co-op assignment at the fall semester of the third year and two summers. Upon return to Rensselaer in the spring semester of the third year the student takes the following courses. Third year, Spring MTLE-4250 Properties of Engineering Materials II 4 credits MTLE-4150 Kinetics of Materials Systems 4 credits ENGR-2600 Modeling & Analysis of Uncertainty 3 credits Restricted Elective 4 credits Fourth year, Fall MTLE-4400 Materials Synthesis and Processing I 4 credits MTLE-4910 Design in Materials Engineering 3 credits MTLE-4300 Properties of Materials I 4 credits MTLE-4100 Thermodynamics of Materials 4 credits Fourth year, Spring MTLE-4450 Materials Synthesis and Processing II 4 credits MTLE-4850 Applications of Engineering Materials 2 credits Materials Elective I 3 credits Free Elective I 4 credits Professional Development II 2 credits Fifth year, Fall Materials Elective II 3 credits Free Elective II 4 credits Free Elective III 4 credits Humanities or Social Sci.
