1	- Only one course marked with an ( * ) will be accepted for each specialization
2	- This Document is a starting point of pre-approved coursework but a MAE Student is not limited to the coursework listed here. Even if not listed in the MAE Graduate Course Structure document, Graduate-level and upper division courses from MAE & other departments in the Jacobs School of Engineering are considered Permitted Electives for MAE MS MC81 Plan II students & for Plan II Students Admitted to MAE MS before Fall 2022. Plan I students need approval from their Faculty Advisor before enrolling in courses not found on this list & may select other courses from the Jacobs School of Engineering//STEM based graduate coursework (taken for 4 units & a letter grade) <- MATH, PHYS, ECE, CSE, SE, NANO, CHEM, BENG, BIO, HDSI, SIOC etc. Please reach out to mae-gradadvising@ucsd.edu if you have any questions.
