The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers a Minor in Electrical Engineering for non-majors.

Prerequisites


The Minor in Electrical Engineering assumes that students have a background in mathematics and physics equivalent to that covered in the first two years of the ECGR curriculum. In mathematics, this would cover calculus (MATH 1241 , MATH 1242 ) and differential equations (MATH 1271). Knowledge of linear algebra is also recommended. Physics requirements are PHYS 2101 , PHYS 2101L , and PHYS 2102 . The totality of such courses is 16 credit hours.

Minor Requirements


A Minor in Electrical Engineering consists of 18 additional credit hours and requires the following:

Required Elective (3 credit hours)


At least one of the following:

Note:


If both ECGR 3111  and ECGR 3121  are taken, one of these courses may count as 3 credits toward the free elective course requirements.

Free Elective Courses (6 credit hours)


Students should choose 6 credits from 3000- and/or 4000-level ECGR courses. All prerequisites for such elective courses must be satisfied.

Grade Requirements


Students must achieve a minimum GPA of 2.0 in all of these courses, and this minor is not available for a student who has a major in either Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
