Other Dartmouth Major Modified w/Engineering Sciences

Any major may be modified with engineering sciences, with necessary approvals. A major modified with engineering sciences consists of 10 courses (6 from the major and 4 from engineering sciences), and should be planned as a unified, coherent whole, and not consist of a series of unrelated courses.
