  • Certain options within the program may be required at certain campuses or for certain program modalities.  Please consult with your advisor or admissions coach for requirements at your campus or for your program modality. 

Complete all courses listed below unless otherwise indicated. Also complete any corequisite labs, recitations, clinicals, or tools courses where specified and complete any additional courses needed beyond specific college and major requirements to satisfy graduation credit requirements.

Universitywide Requirements

All undergraduate students are required to complete the Universitywide Requirements.

NUpath Requirements

All undergraduate students are required to complete the NUpath Requirements.

NUpath requirements: Interpreting Culture (IC), Understanding Societies and Institutions (SI), Engaging Differences and Diversity (DD), and Integrating Knowledge and Skills Through Experience (EX) are not explicitly satisfied by required engineering coursework. Successful completion of a cooperative education experience fulfills the EX requirement. Students are responsible for satisfying unfulfilled NUpath requirements with general elective coursework.

Computing Fundamentals for Engineers (EECE 2140) can be taken in Year 1 Spring instead of a General Elective by students who are interested in the course in preparation for co-ops involving programming and computing hardware.

2

The capstone design courses are taken as follows: 

  • Electrical and Computer Engineering Capstone 1 (EECE 4791) in Summer 1 and Electrical and Computer Engineering Capstone 2 (EECE 4792) in Spring, or...
  • ... Electrical and Computer Engineering Capstone 1 (EECE 4791) in Summer 2 and Electrical and Computer Engineering Capstone 2 (EECE 4792) in Fall.
