NOTES

All core courses must be passed with a grade "C" or better.  A grade of "D" is only acceptable for technical, laboratory and general complementaries.

5 credit courses are shown in boldface, 4 credit courses are shown in underline boldface, 3 credit courses are shown in plain text, 2 credit courses are shown in underline plain text, and 1 credit courses are shown in underlined italics.

Laboratory complementaries are normally taken in conjunction with a Technical Complementary.  The courses ECSE 426, Microprocessor Systems, & ECSE 431, Electronic Design,  can be taken as a Technical Complementary or a Lab Complementary.  The course ECSE 435, Mixed Signal Test Techniques, can be taken as a Lab Complementary only.

Technical Complementaries are selected from a prescribed list of courses of the Departments of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering.

General Complementary requirements consist of 3 credits from a special list dealing with technology and society and 6 credits from a special list of social sciences, humanities and administrative studies (see Section 3.4, Page 239 of University Calendar).

A grade of "C" is required for a ECSE xxx core course in order to proceed with its follow-on ECSE xxx courses.

A grade of "C" is required for a MATH xxx course in order to proceed with its follow-on MATH xxx courses.
