Electrical Engineering

CRITICAL REQUIREMENTS

SEMESTER 1: MATH 1022 or MATH 1023 .
SEMESTER 2: “C” or better in MATH 1550 .
SEMESTER 3: “C” or better in MATH 1552 .
SEMESTER 4: “C” or better in EE 2120 .
SEMESTER 5: “C” or better in EE 2130 .

A prerequisite to any electrical engineering course may be met only by obtaining a “C” or better in each course cited as a prerequisite. This rule does not apply to EE 2950 or EE 3950 .

Elective courses are available so that expertise may be obtained in one or more of the following three areas:
Electronics • theory, design, and fabrication of solid-state devices and design of electronic circuits and systems.
Energy • energy conversion, power system design and analysis, and control of power systems.
Systems and Signal Processing • automatic control, networks, signal processing, and communication.

Additional information concerning these areas and guidelines for selecting electives are available in the division office.
