¹: Grade of "C" or better in all EE courses is required for graduation.
²: Non EE Elective choices: Computer Science, Engineering (including EE), Math and Physics courses approved by advisor, normally 300 level or higher (Math 308 History of Math and Math 321 Applied statistical Methods do not meet the requirements of non EE electives).
³: Maximum of three credits of EE 490 Electrical Engineering Problems is allowed as an independent study, it can count towards one of the Electrical Engineering or non-Electrical Engineering elective requirements, it cannot be double counted. 2 credits of EE 397 Cooperative Education (40 hours/week) is equivalent to 3 credits of the EE Electives with S/U grading, maximum 4 credits of EE 397 is equivalent to maximum of 6 credits of EE Elective.
⁴: Students must ensure all appropriate pre-requisites are met prior to registering for all courses in the curriculum.

Some of the following courses may be waived by completing: ENGR 102
