- MATH Major: The illustrated program corresponds in its mathematics courses to the BS-level mathematics major. Notice that students are assumed to have received AP credit for both MATH 31 and MATH 32, or alternatively that they are qualified to enter MATH 103 in their first semester.
- 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.
- MATH Electives: Four courses selected from MATH 128, 132S, 136, 160 (C/L COMPSCI 150), 181 and 216. If MATH 200 or 203 are elected in the program above, consider MATH 201 and 204 as electives.
- EE Concentration Electives: Four courses selected from the set approved for the EE program. Courses must be selected from at least two areas, and at least two courses must be from one area.
- Elective ECE Course: Any ECE course not otherwise included in the student's program.
- Approved Engineering 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 to complete a concentration requirement and count as the required Design Elective.
- Independent Study: Accepted for Duke BSE course credits and one elective ECE course, but not for other required courses.
