Concentration Areas

In order to graduate, a student must choose four senior electives. Of these four courses, three must have the ECE curricular designation. Furthermore, of these four, at least two must be from within one concentration area. The following concentration areas are recognized:

Communication and Networking

ECE 412, ECE 474, ECE 476, CS 420, CS 421 or CS 423.

Computer and VLSI Systems

ECE 416, ECE 424 or CS 457.

Control and Power

ECE 458R, ECE 460 or ECE 466.

Signal and Image Processing

ECE 416, ECE 480, ECE 484 or ECE 486.

Other courses, such as special topics courses, might fall in an emphasis area provided that this is approved by the course and curriculum committee. Furthermore, qualified students might be able to take graduate level courses, see adviser. There are some other courses available when there is sufficient demand for these courses, such as ECE482.
