128 Credits
Students must add 3 units of co-curricular activities (Physical Education), usually taken in six .5 units.
Follow pre-requisites and semester offerings. This is a ‘suggested’ plan which can vary by individual student; shows best route through
system to avoid conflicts. Students who begin in a pre-calculus course will take ENG1001 and ENG1100 in place of ENG1101 in first
year.
1. MA1160 may be replaced by MA1161
2. MA2320 and MA3520 may replace MA2321 and MA3521
3. Photonics Electives: 6 credits from approved list of Photonics Concentration electives.
4. SELECT Approved Elective: 3 credits (4a) from a “SELECT approved list”, topics recommended by industry professionals; plus 3 cr.
(4b) from Approved electives list: CH1153 may apply. Reduce 4b by 2 cr. w/ enterprise design opt.
5. Approved Engineering Design courses or Enterprise courses may replace EE4901, and EE4910. See advisor for details
6. EE Electives: 3 credits EE course not listed here and not EE3805, EE4805, EE4901, EE4910.
7. HASS = Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences. Follow university requirements for general distribution electives.
8. Credits “EE” level 4000+ may be double-counted toward an ECE accelerated master’s program.
