yIntegration
The Integrated Micro/Nanofluidics Lab (IMNfL) focuses on developing novel methods to control fluidic motions in micro and nanoscale. Various physical principles dominant in micro and nanoscale world such as surface and interfacial phenomena are explored and investigated. Our research aims at integration of various fluidic control principles to build portable/compact fluidic systems which benefits disease diagnostics, chemical or biological analytic processes heat transfer and energy harvestingbiological analytic processes, heat transfer, and energy harvesting.

• Can switch to MS only if all MS admission requirements are satisfied and if a supervising professor for thesis hasare satisfied and if a supervising professor for thesis has been identified. Need an email confirmation for the same from the identified supervising professor.
AE Course requirementsAE Course requirements• For both the M.S. and the M. Engr. degrees, the balance of the
required coursework hours may be chosen in consultation with the Supervising Professor (MS) or Graduate Advisor (MEngr) to meet the student’s needs and interests.
• Courses taken outside the Aerospace Engineering program require approval of the student’s Supervising Professor as well as the Graduate pp p gAdvisor.
• The elective courses cannot include special project courses (forThe elective courses cannot include special project courses (for example, AE 5391 / 5291 / 5191 Advanced Studies in Aerospace Engineering) or research courses (for example, AE 5397 / 5297 / 5197 Research in Aerospace Engineering).Research in Aerospace Engineering).
• Some courses such as AE 5397/6397 etc. are graded P/R/F. An earned grade of P or R (can be taken for repeated credit) will not affect thegrade of P or R (can be taken for repeated credit) will not affect the GPA. However, earning an F will adversely affect the GPA.
