TOTAL

180

1. Counts as Mathematics and Basic Sciences for ABET, total units Mathematics and Basic Sciences = 49.
2. Counts as Engineering Concepts for ABET, total units Engineering Concepts = 85.
3. Students should contact the Office of Academic and Student Affairs for approved lists in the categories of technical breadth and GE.
4. See the range of Electrical and Computer Engineering Electives in electrical and computer engineering and computer science that apply to this requirement.
5. Any excess or available units not already applied to another degree requirement will satisfy this unit.
6. When selecting an ethics course, review the Engineering Writing requirement. If the requirement will not be satisfied another way, select an ethics course that also satisfies the writing requirement.
