- Departmental Requirements for a Minor in Statistical Science:
Four courses in Statistical Science at the 100-level, beyond STA 113 included in the sample program with the placeholders "STA Elective". It is suggested that students wishing to pursue a minor in Statistical Science discuss their specific program with the Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) in Statistical Science and with their ECE faculty adviser.
- WRITING 20: University Writing Program, required in first year.
- SS-H: Social Sciences & Humanities, 5 required semester-course electives, appropriately distributed.
- CHEM 21L: AP credit CHEM 19 is also acceptable.
- PHYSICS 61L & 62L: Matriculating students who have AP credit for PHYSICS 61L (but not 62L) take PHYSICS 62L; those who have AP credit for PHYSICS 61L and 62L take PHYSICS 63L; and international students who have credit for the equivalent of PHYSICS 51L & 52L take PHYSICS 143L.
- STA 113 is recommended but students may substitute MATH 135 or ECE 255.
- ECE Concentration Electives: Four courses selected from the set approved for the ECE program. Courses must be selected from at least two areas, and at least two courses must be from the same area.
- ECE Elective: Any ECE course at the 100 level or above except ECE 148L, which latter course may be taken as as a free Elective.
- Approved Design Elective: Approved Electrical Engineering Design Elective, required in Junior or Senior year. Currently ECE 123, 135, 154, 164, 251 and 261 are approved. The same course may not be used as a Concentration Elective and count as a required Design Elective or ECE Elective
- Independent Study: Accepted for up to two of the Elective ECE Courses and for any of the Free Electives, but not for any other required course in the ECE Program.
