What is a good technical elective for Aerospace Engineering Majors?

I'm a sophomore ASE student, what's a good tech elective for me to take in the fall 2017 semester? The easier the better!

Easy is pretty much not going to exist once we really get deep into upper division courses, so it really just depends on what interests you. I'm a sophomore as well, and I'm going to try and take ASE339 this fall for my tech elective because I think it's some cool shit.

The (non-exhaustive) list is here so just look through it and other random upper division courses and find something that interests you, then double check with Sarah that it'll count.

For the next couple of weeks they're weekdays from 11am-1pm and 5-9pm. Except they don't have them Friday evenings. It's super helpful because they have info about what professors are better and how time consuming the classes are

Theres no actual class, theres just a bunch of online quizzes and discussions that you can have the textbook open for, making it ridiculously easy. I finished the class the first month of school just so I wouldnt have to mess with it again. If youre wondering what material is covered, look up mkt320f on the course catalog

ASE 128. You just have to join a club (I recommend LRA ;) ) and get an officer to sign off on a certain amount of participation hours and that's it.

Don't you have to take that for three semesters though? I'd rather just get it done in one
