- 1
Minimum grade of C required.
- 2
Two of three labs MUST be a sequence.
- 3
CS 4726 will satisfy the Professionalism/Ethics requirement area or Society and Systems, but not both.
- 4
Junior Design Options are as follows (students must pick one option and may not change):
- Option 1 - LMC 3432, LMC 3431, CS 3311,CS 3312.
- Option 2 - ECE VIP courses and LMC 3403.
- Option 3 - Satisfy Georgia Tech Research Option
- Option 4 - CS 2701 (3 hours), CS 4699-I2P (3 hours), LMC 3403 (3 hours) = 9 hours OR CS 4699- I2P (6 hours), LMC 3403 (3 hours) = 9 hours
- Option 5 - CS 4723 (3 hours), LMC 3403 (3 hours) = 6 hours
Six credits of the Junior Design option are used as Major Requirements and the overage credits of research/VIP (5 credit hours/2 credit hours) may be used as free electives. Students completing VIP for their junior design requirement will be required to complete at least three semesters of VIP. (VIP 1 + VIP 2 + VIP 3) (for a total of 5 credit hours) + LMC 3403 = 8 hours of VIP credit.
Students using CREATE-X for junior design take at least 6 hours of CREATE-X Start-ip Lab and Idea 2 Prototype (I2P) and 3 of the 6 hours must be I2P. Students take these 6 hours with LMC 3403 (3 hours) for a total of 9 hours. Extra three hours for CREATE-X option can be used in free electives.
