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 anddesign.Materialsengineeringembracesphysics,chemistryandmechanicsto 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 undergraduateMaterials Engineering program, the only one of itskind 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 StudySolid Mechanics and Dynamics Mechanical engineers are involved in the design of structures andmechanical 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

233www.ualberta.ca U n i v e r s i t y o f A l b e r t AEngineering

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,andlubrication.Mechanicalengineerswithaspecializationinfluidmechanics,design,andimproveawiderangeoffluids-relatedequipmentaswellasinvestigateconcernsrelatedtotheflowofwaterandairintheenvironment.Anothermajorareaofworkformechanicalengineerswithafluidmechanicsbackgroundisintheaerodynamicsindustrydesigningeverythingfromwingstojetengines.

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 asmanagers 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

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 80.0% or above. All high school students who meet the minimumaverageareadmittedtothefirstorqualifyingyearprogram.

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)isbasedonthefinalfouracademic terms. If the course load in these terms totals less than 70.0 units,additionaltermswillbeincludedinthecalculationoftheEGAasrequiredtoreachatotalofat least70.0units.The70.0units includecourses designated as extra to degree. Grades for courses taken inSpring/SummerarenotincludedintheEGAunlessthisisascheduledtermwithinthestudent’sdegreeprogram.

(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(5)b.butmustmeetthedegreetimelimitasspecifiedin§83.3(3).Acourseloadlessthanthatrequiredtomaintainfulltimestatus,asdefinedin§240, may have scholarship eligibility, income tax and student loanimplications.

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):
