Electrical Engineering Technical Electives
From the catalog
Students can register for EECE 4991/EECE 4992 more than once. For these courses combined, a maximum of 8 semester hours will be allowed to satisfy the requirement of technical electives. An additional 4 semester hours will be allowed as a general elective. At most, one of these courses (4 semester hours) can be taken in a semester.
Though students may register for EECE 2750 more than once, only 4 semester hours will be allowed to satisfy the requirements of technical electives. An additional 4 semester hours will be allowed as a general elective.
EECE 2310 is not an approved course option for ECE majors to select for a technical elective. It is only for Khoury students.
Students who choose to complete the optional concentration in semiconductor engineering may fulfill this requirement with concentration coursework.

Substitutions
Stated by the catalog on this program's requirements:
- Students can substitute Engineering Design (GE 1110) and Engineering Problem Solving and Computation (GE 1111) for Cornerstone of Engineering 1 (GE 1501) and Cornerstone of Engineering 2 (GE 1502) .
Possible equivalents for this program beyond the above — dashed means a suggestion, not a rule, and every substitution needs your advisor's approval:
- GE 1110 ↔ GE 1501 (tier A, from a catalog footnote)
- GE 1111 ↔ GE 1502 (tier A, from a catalog footnote)
