Polymer Specialty Certificate
[ List of All Engineering Certificate
Programs ]
The Polymer Specialty Certificate is designed to provide
a strong interdisciplinary educational program for undergraduate
engineering and suitably prepared science students interested
in pursuing a polymer career. The certificate will also
reduce training time required to turn Texas A&M students
into productive members of the industrial workforce. This
program is the first of its kind offered in the State of
Texas. No schools in the State of Texas offer a formal polymer
curriculum, despite the significant role the polymer industry
plays in the state’s economy.
The Polymer Specialty Certificate consists of (4) three-hour
courses for a total of 12 credit hours. The required courses
are MEEN 458 and CHEM 466. In addition, the remaining six
hours are to be selected from a list of approved courses
of which three hours can be substituted with an approved
individual research experience. Completion of the certificate
will be recorded on the student’s University transcript.
Guideline
Students should complete and submit certificate
application to the Polymer Technology Center
(208 Engineering/Physics Building) prior to registering
for any of the certificate courses.
