Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)
The ECE major provides advanced opportunities for students to analyze, design, and build computing and communication systems. Students apply the principles of linear systems, circuit theory, microelectronics, computer architecture, communication theory, software engineering and signal processing to understand and build these systems.
The Course Requirements of the ECE program are:
ECE - All of:
| ENGR2410 | Signals and Systems | 4 ENGR |
| OR | |
| or designated alternative | |
| | |
| ENGR2420 | Intro Microelectronic Circuits with laboratory | 4 ENGR |
| ENGR2510 | Software Design | 4 ENGR |
| or approved substitutions | |
| ENGR3410 | Computer Architecture | 4 ENGR |
The designated alternative for ENGR2410, Signals and Systems is Engineering Systems Analysis and Engineering Systems Analysis: Signals.
Approved substitutions for ENGR2510, Software Design are: Complexity Science, Software Systems, and Artificial Intelligence. These are all advanced-level E:C courses with a software design experience that is comparable in scope to the one in Software Design.
