MECHANICAL ENGINEERING 27 Probation Policy Students with an overall GPA less than 3. 0 are on Academic Probation. • Full-time students who earn individual semester GPAs below 2. 00 twice cannot continue in the Mechanical Engineering Graduate degree program. • Full-time students who earn individual semester GPAs below 3. 00 in two successive semesters (fall or spring) cannot continue in the Mechanical Engineering Graduate degree program. • Full-time students who earn a cumulative GPA less than 3. 00 will have two following long semesters to raise their GPA above 3. 00 to be able to continue the Mechanical Engineering Graduate degree program

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING 28 Cheating and Dishonesty We have a departmental “Zero Tolerance” policy on cheating in graduate courses, including MEEN 691 Research and MEEN 685 Directed Studies (for instance, plagiarism in the preparation of a thesis/dissertation or a report). The Aggie honor code: “An Aggie does not lie, cheat, or steal, or tolerate those who do. ” Any student who is caught cheating in a graduate course will receive an F* for the course. A second violation could result in the immediate dismissal of the student from the mechanical engineering graduate program.
