Scheduling of ENEE Courses

Word document (.doc) of "Scheduling of ENEE Courses"

The Department of Electrical Engineering will offer all courses either during Fall or Spring. Courses with high student demand will also be offered in the Summer. No classes other than Senior Design I and II will be offered both in Spring and Fall, so make sure you plan accordingly. Be aware that if you drop a class you may have to wait a year before you are able to register for it again and that no pre-requisites will be waived.

Fall Courses(19 classes total - 13 3-hr. courses, 1 1-hr. course, and 5 labs - 45 credits)
2550, 2582, 2586, 3091, 3092, 3540, 3516, 3522, 3572, 3583, 3514, 3587, 3533, 3535, 3574, 3511, elective 1, elective 2. For non-EE’s: 2500

Spring Courses(17 classes total - 12 3-hr. courses, 1 1-hr course, and 4 labs - 41 credits)
2551, 2510, 3091, 3092, 3530, 3547, 3543, 3517, 3582, 3512, 3560, 3521, elective 1, elective 2, elective 3. For non-EE’s: 3518, 3501

Note that the minimum number of electives is listed above; we could, of course, offer more.

¹All elective courses are subject to approval by the Department and the College of Engineering and must satisfy both the general degree requirements and the engineering general degree requirements appearing in this catalog. A list of approved electives in these areas is available. At least one of the Humanities or Social Science Electives must be at the 2000 or higher level.
² Students who are not strong in math are encouraged to take the three-semester sequence Mathematics 2107 (3 cr), 2108 (3 cr), and 2109 (4 cr) in place of the two-semester sequence Mathematics 2111 (5 cr) and 2112 (5 cr).
³ Students may elect to substitute Chemistry 1010.
⁴ Must be chosen to include a minimum of 4 credit hours of design.
** While all courses listed must be taken to qualify for the specific degree, schedule rearrangements are certainly possible. The primary consideration is successful completion of prerequisites. Also, see the section "Course Numbering System" on the College of Engineering web site for additional information.
NOTE: The electrical engineering curriculum is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
