MEGR 3092. Special Topics in Motorsports Engineering. (1-4) Prerequisite: permission of the department. Technical Elective. The course will build upon and synthesize the knowledge the students have gained from the mechanical engineering core curriculum. The specific topics covered in each separate offering of the course will serve as the vehicle for teaching engineering analysis, synthesis and design, while simultaneously affording an opportunity for the students to point themselves toward an area of specialization. May be repeated for credit.

MEGR 3231. Advanced CAD/CAM. (3) Prerequisites: ENGR 1202 and MEGR 2156, both with a grade of C or better. Technical Elective. An introduction to advanced CAD modeling techniques, reverse engineering and Rapid technologies with a detailed application of these tools in engineering design.

MEGR 3232. Plastic Part Design. (3) Prerequisites: ENGR 1202 and MEGR 2156, both with a grade of C or better. Technical Elective. An introduction to the science and technology of polymer materials and processes with an emphasis on the application of these topics to engineering design.

MEGR 3241. Motorsports Instrumentation. (3) Prerequisites: ECGR 2161 with a grade of C or better. Technical Elective. General applications of test equipment and instrumentation as applied to the motorsports industry. Includes three two-hour labs and one driver outing during the semester.
