OrientationNotes

2015 - 2016 | UM SOE | NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION 3

Welcome to the School of Engineering at the University of Mississippi. Our school is over a century old and is proud of its heritage of excel-lence.

Engineering was taught at the University of Mississippi since its founding in 1848. One of the first four professors ap-pointed at the University was John Millington, Professor of Natural History. Millington was credited to be the first professor ever to teach civil engineering as a university subject, at the University College of London, England, in 1827. A few years later, Chancellor Frederick Barnard, the first Chancellor of the University, was appointed as Professor of Mathematics, Astronomy, and Civil Engi-neering, in 1854. Barnard was a highly respected scholar who later became the 10th President of Columbia University. The Barnard Col-lege in New York City was named after him. The School of Engineering was officially established in 1900 by the Board of Trustees, to become the first engineering school in the State of Mississippi. Dr. Alfred Hume, later Chancellor of the University, serving as its first Dean.

Being an engineering school in a liberal arts university, our graduates are well rounded, enabling them to have a broad career spectrum. Many of them became leaders of the society and their profes-sion. Quite a number of our graduates were success-

ful in academia, becoming Chancellors or Presidents of universities and depart-ment heads. Their strong academic background led them to become Rhode Scholar, Fulbright Scholar, Guggenheim Fellowship, and Goldwater Scholar. In governmental service, we find our graduates as Director of NASA Kennedy Space Center, Deputy Director of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Secre-tary of United State Senate, Program Manager at National Science Foundation, Chief Engineer at Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), and in many other leadership positions at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, Federal Highway Administration, Army Avia-tion and Missile Research Development and Engineer-ing Center, Corps of Engineer Research and Development Center, to mention just a few. And of course, many of them have founded their own business, or become CEO’s or top managers of national or international companies. The broad training they received from our school also allowed many of them to successfully enter the profession of medi-

cal doctors and lawyers.

Our undergraduate curricu-lum has a long tradition of providing a firm ground in en-gineering fundamentals and engineering design, as well as a broad based education drawing from the Ole Miss liberal arts tradition. Our fac-ulty members are rigorously trained, and many have prac-tical experiences. They take teaching to heart as well as conduct advanced research. Many of our faculty members are nationally and internation-ally recognized, as evident by being elected Fellows or other honorary positions in their respective fields. In recent years, both student enroll-ment and research funding have risen to an all time high. However, the school still maintains its historical ‘small school’ characteristics of being student-centered and student-friendly. We will con-tinue to educate and touch students one at a time.

I encourage you to explore the School of Engineering web site, and to visit our cam-pus and the charming City of Oxford, home of William Faulkner, Nobel Laureate in Literature, to experience for yourself the excellence of the School of Engineering, and the University of Mississippi, a Great American Public University!

Sincerely, Alex Cheng Dean, School of Engineering

DEAN: SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING


ABOUT : SOE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING


OVERVIEWThe School of Engineering offers Bachelor of Sci-ence degree programs in chemical, civil, computer science, electrical, geological, and mechanical engineering as well as a Bachelor of Engineering degree.

HISTORYFounded in 1900, the SOE is the third oldest school of the university and is the oldest engineer-ing school in the state. Instruction in engineering dates from 1854 when a Department of Engineer-ing was established by the Board of Trustees to complement a strong program in natural sciences.

MISSION STATEMENTThe SOE at UM strives continuously to improve the quality of teaching, research and service. In so do-ing, the school

1. Prepares students with a broad-based educa-tion for entering the engineering profession, for advanced studies and for careers in research.

2. Develops in students leadership skills, com-munication and creative thinking skills, global perspective and commitment to lifelong learn-ing; and

3. Provides practicing professionals with continu-ing education opportunities

The school capitalizes on its engineering science tradition, its low student-to-faculty ratio and the liberal arts environment of UM to give our gradu-ates the abilities to adapt to the rapid changes in engineering and to give our graduates the interdis-ciplinary background and capacity for innovation that sets them apart from the graduates of larger engineering schools.

Frequently Asked Questions:

CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

How do I calculate my GPA?Your grade point average is a weighted number on a + / - grading scale.

A = 4 pointsA - = 3.7 pointsB + = 3.3 pointsB = 3 pointsB - = 2.7 pointsC + = 2.3 pointsC = 2 pointsC - = 1.7 pointsD = 1 pointF = 0 points

“Total Quality Points” can be found by multiplying credit hours by points earned for each class, and obtaining a sum. For example,

MATH 261 = 3-hr credits, BWRIT 101 = 3-hr credits, AHIS 105 = 3-hr credits, FCHEM 105 = 3-hr credit, BCHEM 115 = 1-hr credit, DENGR 100 = 3-hr credit, A

Total Quality Points: (3)(3) + (3)(4) + (3)(0) + (3)(3) + (1)(1) + (3)(4) = 43Credit Hours Attempted: 16GPA Calculation: 43 quality points /16 hours = 2.68

What is full-time status?Enrollment in at least 12 credit hours and no more than 19 credit hours allows a student to withhold full-time status.

How often will I meet with my advisor?Every semester, there is a pre-registration period for a current student to meet with his or her advisor, plan the upcoming schedule, talk about academic progress, and lift the advisor hold from a student’s account. It is imperative that students make an appointment with their advi-sor in a timely manner during advising week.

Advising for the Spring semester begins in the end of October and goes through the begin-ning of November. Advising for the Fall semester begins the end of March and goes through the beginning of April.

You will not be allowed to register, until you schedule and attend your academic advisor meeting. Pay attention to e-mails and deadlines. Communicate with your academic advisor properly when contacting them through email. Do not use text-speak or carelessly worded messages. Always sign your name to your e-mails with an administrator or faculty member. It is helpful to include your student ID number.

How do I find out who my advisor is?Soon after your initial orientation advising meeting log into your MyOleMiss account and under the “Academics” tab select “Advising” and then select “My Advisors”. Your advisor’s information will be available to you on this page. If you have questions about this or if an advisor’s name is not listed following orientation, please contact your department secretary.




What if I need to drop a class – is that okay?Be sure to check with your academic advisor first, especially if you are considering dropping a gateway course that might prevent you from taking the next course in sequence in the fol-lowing term.

Be sure you drop before the official course withdrawal date. For the Fall semester, the course withdrawal deadline is in the first days of October and, for the Spring semester, the course withdrawal deadline is in the first days of March.Check the university academic calendar for exact dates.Be sure you don’t drop below 12 hours or else you will be classified as a part-time student and may lose some benefits of full-time status.

What if I have an emergency and need to withdraw?Late Withdrawal from a Course • After the course withdrawal deadline, a student may drop a course only in cases of extreme and unavoidable emergency as determined by the student’s academic dean (Marni Kendricks). Unacceptable reasons for late withdrawal include dissatis-faction over an expected grade or a change in a student’s degree program or major. In no case may a class be dropped after the last regular class day of the semester (session or term).Courses dropped after the course withdrawal deadline will still appear on the student’s of-ficial transcript. A status of W will be recorded if the student is passing the course at the time of withdrawal; an F grade will be recorded if the student is failing.

What if I make a “D” in MATH, CHEM, or PHYS?The Liberal Arts College owns these courses; the College requires a C or better in these se-quence courses in order to advance to the next one in the series.

One might want to use one of his or her Forgiveness declaration opportunities. For more information about Forgiveness Policy you may visit the Engineering web page, Undergradu-ate Academics.

Talk to your advisor or Dean’s Office for additional guidance.

Can I take classes over the summer at another school?Yes. You need to obtain Pre-Approval before doing so in order to make sure your classes will be accepted as approved transfer coursework and will be applicable to your degree. See the Engineering Dean’s Office for assistance.

Will my parents have access to my grades?According to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, The Buckley Amendment Waiver Form allows students to grant permission for UM Engineering faculty or staff to discuss matters pertaining to curriculum and grades with parents or legal guardians. If permission is not granted by the student, representatives of The University of Mississippi are not authorized to speak to outside parties (parents, legal guardians, potential employers, etc.) about academic details.

You may find the “Access for Relatives/Guardians” form by logging into your “MyOleMiss” account and under the “My Profile” tab select “Access for Relatives/Guardians.”

What is academic standing?There are four different categories of academic standing based on a student’s academic per-formance: good standing, academic probation, academic suspension, or academic dismissal. Probation, suspension, and dismissal become effective at the end of the semester in which the student fails to attain the GPA specified in the rules following.




Although the student will usually receive official notification of such action, notification is not a prerequisite to the student being placed on academic probation, academic suspension, or academic dismissal. It is the student’s responsibility to ascertain his or her academic status prior to the beginning of each semester.

Academic Probation • A student will be placed on academic probation if his or her cu-mulative GPA falls below an acceptable level as listed below. “Hours attempted” includes all previously earned credit hours (including hours transferred from other institutions; P and Z graded hours; and hours earned by examination or advanced placement) plus all attempted but unearned hours (including I, IP, L, and F graded courses).

Hours Attempted Minimum GPA1-30 1.6031-60 1.8061 or more 2.00

A student who is on academic probation will continue on probation until his or her cu-mulative GPA reaches that required for good standing according to the number of hours attempted, or until the student’s GPA for any semester falls below 2.00 while he or she is on probation.

Academic Suspension • A student on academic probation who fails to earn a GPA of at least 2.00 in any term that he or she is on academic probation will be suspended. For this calculation, an I mark will be computed as an F. Readmission to the University will be denied for at least one regular semester (not including the summer term). The student will be eligible to return at the end of that semester. Both the academic suspension and the readmission will be recorded on the student’s permanent record. No student shall be academically suspended unless he or she has been placed on academic probation for at least one semester.

Academic Dismissal • If a student is on probation as a result of having returned from an academic suspension or academic dismissal, and fails to meet the 2.00 GPA retention standard for any semester, then he or she will be academically dismissed for one calendar year. For this calculation, an I mark will be computed as an F. The student may appeal for readmission at the end of this year; readmission will be determined by the Faculty Commit-tee on Readmission Appeals, and is automatic for students who have been dismissed only one time. No student shall be academically dismissed from the University unless he or she has first been previously academically suspended or dismissed. Students who have been academi-cally suspended or dismissed for longer than 48 months may wish to consider the Academic Restart option described in the Admission to the University.

Readmitted Students • A student who returns after an academic suspension or academic dismissal will automatically be on academic probation. No work earned elsewhere during the academic suspension or academic dismissal will be used either in the calculation of the candidate’s academic status, nor transferred as credit toward a degree. However, students may remove deficiencies by taking deferral courses (removing high school deficiencies) or devel-opmental courses (such as Mathematics 100) elsewhere.

Part-time Students • Part-time students (those carrying fewer than 12 hours, graded and ungraded combined, per semester) on academic probation will stay on academic probation until the term in which they have attempted 12 or more hours since the last determination of status. At the end of that term, their status will be recalculated as if all the new work had been done in a single term, and a new status will be determined.

Repeated Probation • A student who has been moved from academic probation to good




standing will be subject to new academic action in accordance with the preceding rules exactly as if the student had never been previously placed on academic probation, academic suspension, or academic dismissal.

Why go to class?It is the responsibility of the instructor to notify classes at the outset of each course about the class attendance requirements. It is the responsibility of the student to comply with the class attendance policy.

Students must attend the first meeting of every course for which they are registered, unless they obtain prior departmental approval. Without such approval, a student who is absent from the first class meeting may be dropped from that class by the dean of the school or col-lege with the responsibility for the course. A student who incurs excessive absences in a given course may receive a grade of F for the course, and, in addition, may be dismissed from the class upon recommendation of the instructor and approval by the student’s academic dean.

When it appears to an instructor that a student has discontinued a class without officially dropping the course, the instructor will report this fact to the student’s academic dean. The University reserves the right to dismiss from the University any student who has been exces-sively absent from multiple courses.

Is co-op available in my degree program?Yes. Co-op is available in all programs within the School of Engineering. And it is highly rec-ommended for any student interested in obtaining experience in your field before graduating. The Co-op Coordinator for the School of Engineering is Ryan Upshaw, Assistant Dean for Student Services (217 Brevard Hall).

Will everybody be assigned a mentor in the School of Engineering?Yes. All new engineering students will be assigned an engineering upper classman as their mentor. An ESB Officer will be contacting you by email to provide you with the name of your new upper classman mentor. You will also have an opportunity to meet your mentor at our annual “Meet Your Mentor” dinner which will be held soon after classes commence in the Fall semester.

Where can I get help with my resume for a co-op job or summer internship? What about when I graduate and look for a real job?Students are encouraged to visit the University’s Career Center (303 Martindale Hall). Upon enrollment, all engineering students will be granted an account and will be required to regis-ter with the Career Center. The Career Center can assist students in developing a resume




and also help students with preparation for interviews for co-op, internships, or full time positions. By establishing an account with the Career Center, students will have access to post their resumes on the employment website and search for position openings as well. These services provided by the Career Center come at no cost to the student, so please utilize this offering. Engineering students can also search for job postings through the engineering em-ployment webpage that is housed on the School of Engineering website.

PC or Mac?

It is normally a personal preference of the user. However, a computer with Microsoft Win-dows is highly preferred and sometimes mandatory for certain engineering programs. For students seeking a degree in the following engineering departments, it is recommended to have a computer running Microsoft Windows: Chemical, Civil, Electrical, Geology, and Me-chanical. The Department of Computer and Information Science does not have any prefer-ence between Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux. Linux is another operating system that can be used, but it is not advisable outside of the Department of Computer and Informa-tion Science.

If a Mac is purchased, it can still be configured to be compatible with Microsoft Windows software. However, it will require additional configuration and possibly additional costs depending on the solution chosen. We recommend performing an internet search for Mac Bootcamp and also Mac Parallels for further information. Also note that the School of Engi-neering IT Department can only provide very limited support and guidance for a Mac.

GENERAL ENGINEERING

ACADEMIC PROGRAM DIRECTOR:Dr. Dwight Waddell, Assoc. Prof.204 Brevard Hallengineering.olemiss.edu/be

OVERVIEWThe School of Engineering offers a Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) degree which is more broadly focused than the B.S. in engineering science programs. The B.E. is designed to provide students the opportunity to gain an understanding of engineer-ing, scientific, and technical knowledge, which will enhance their career objectives in Engineering Science and in areas outside of Engineering.

The B.E. program allows students with specific career goals to individualize their education. Students achieve the same broad understanding of scientific and tech-nical knowledge as their peers in the professional engineering degree programs by taking the same engineering foundation courses. But after students have fulfilled the common requirements of the university and School of Engineering, they em-bark on 33 hours of courses they choose to fit their individual career goals.

Graduates of the B.E. program are well-rounded and ready to tackle any problem and undertake almost any career.

DEPARTMENT CHAIR:Dr. Yacoub Najjar, Professor 106 Carrier Hall engineering.olemiss.edu/civil

OVERVIEWThe Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering is the road map that leads to a pro-fessional engineering degree that emphasizes the concepts needed to properly design, construct, and maintain naturally and/or physically built environmental systems such as roads, highways, bridges, dams, canals, water treatment plants, wastewater treatment plants, and buildings.

Our curriculum has a good balance between math, physics, chemistry, engineering sciences, and civil engineering professional courses within liberal arts settings. Our program has an excellent student/faculty ratio with excellent facilities for hands-on education. Our interactions are more personable and we proudly have a close knit student body. Most of our students are involved with the designing and building of concrete canoes and steel bridges. We also participate in regional competitions. Our students have lots of fun during these competitions.

A graduate of our Civil Engineering program can be involved in the design, con-struction or operation of many critical facilities. Just to name a few, these facilities could be highways, water or wastewater treatment plants, bridges, hi-rise build-ings, dams, aircrafts, hospitals, transmission towers, nuclear power plants, traffic signals, and airports.

A successful civil engineering student must be hard working, responsible, dedi-cated, ethical, creative, personable, patient , sociable, fun loving, and be ready to lead when needed. We are very proud of our accomplished and highly supportive alumni.

If you want a job, a great education, and have fun while doing it, join us in civil engineering!

OVERVIEWThe Department of Geology and Geological Engineering offers a Bachelor of Science in Geological Engineering (B.S.G.E.) and Bachelor of Science in Geology (B.S. Geology)

Geology is the branch of science that studies a wide variety of Earth systems includ-ing (1) the origins and history of the Earth, (2) extraction of earth resources such as coal, oil and natural gas, (3) natural hazards such as earthquakes, volcanism and landslides, (4) global climate change, (5) hydrology, and (6) interactions between the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere.

What is Geological Engineering?Geological engineering combines the two challenging disciplines of geology and engineering, which makes for a rewarding career. In planning a construction project, the “geologist” part looks for the most stable, ideal piece of land for building. The geological engineer then relies on his or her engineering training to evaluate how the structure to be built will affect the environment as well as the structural design considerations related to data from analyzing the geology of the site.

ORIENTATION ADVISING GUIDANCE

Freshmen Academic RequirementsTo enhance the success of students in the Engineer-ing programs, freshmen not meeting the following criteria are subject to ad-ditional academic requir-ments.• Students not meeting

the minimum criterion of ACT math score 24 must be enrolled in MATH 125 (or MATH

121 and 123 depending on math background), before they are eligible for MATH 261 Calculus I.

• Students not meeting the minimum criterion of high school GPA 3.00 must be enrolled in EDHE 105 Freshman Year Experience course.

MinorThe School of Engineer-ing does not require, but recognizes a minor course of study in a department different from the major. Unless otherwise speci-fied, a minor consists of 18 hours; 2.00 minimum GPA is required in all work applied toward the minor.See undergraduate catalog for specific course requirments to achieve a minor in various depart-ments.

AP / CLEP / High School Duel Enrollent / IB CreditThe School of Engineering recognizes credit earned by these methods in accor-dance with The University of Mississippi undergradu-ate catalog.

Honors CollegeHonors 101 and 102 can be used to satisfy the six-hour English composi-tion (WRIT) requirement. Alternatively, a student may apply the credits to-ward humanities or social science hours, especially if the student has AP English or other college composi-tion credit. For the School of Engineering, HON 101-102 can satisfy 3 hours of humanities and/or 3 hours of social science.

School of Engineering Advising Guidance | 2014-2015




Chemistry GuidanceAll students planning to enroll in Chemistry 105 (General Chemistry I) must meet the course prerequi-site, which is a minimum ACT mathematics score of 25 (SAT 590). Students that do not meet this re-quirement can satisfy the prerequisite by complet-ing any of the following: earn a minimum “B” grade in Chemistry 101, earn a minimum “B” grade in Math 125 or higher level Math, or earn a minimum “B” grade in both Math 121 and Math 123.

Math GuidanceIndividual skill and place-ment in mathematics are focal points for future suc-cess in engineering and computer science studies. Each student should reg-ister for the highest level math courses they feel comfortable in based on individual achievement in high school. The following are suggested guidelines for students when consid-ering enrollment in math courses:• 26 ACT math score or

greater (SAT 650 +) Those students with four years of high school math (or have com-pleted the math series through Algebra II) who scored 26 or more on the ACT math sec-tion (SAT 650) should

register for MATH 261 typically.

• 25 – 20 ACT math score (SAT 620 – 530) - Stu-dents should consider MATH 125 (Mathemat-ics for Science & Engineering), unless the advisor suggests MATH 261 (Calculus), MATH 123 (Trigonometry), or MATH 121 (College Al-gebra). This will depend upon a student’s high school level of suc-cess and preparation in mathematics as well as discussion with the departmental advisor.

English CompositionGuidanceThe School of Engineering reserves specific sections of Writ 101 in the Fall and Writ 102 in the Spring for Engineering students to enhance technical writing skills and focus on topics of interest.
