EECE Technical Electives

Students can register for EECE 4991/EECE 4992 more than once. For these courses combined, a maximum of 8 semester hours will be allowed to satisfy the requirement of technical electives. An additional 4 semester hours will be allowed as a general elective. At most, one of these courses (4 semester hours) can be taken in a semester.

Though students may register for EECE 2750 more than once, only 4 semester hours will be allowed to satisfy the requirements of technical electives. An additional 4 semester hours will be allowed as a general elective.

EECE 2310 is not an approved course option for ECE majors to select for a technical elective. It is only for Khoury students.

If more than one electrical engineering fundamentals course is taken, it can count as a technical elective.

If CS 4530 is taken, EECE 4520 is not an acceptable technical elective.

If more than one electrical engineering fundamentals course is taken, it can count as a technical elective.
