 Pass-fail only allowed for Core IMPACTS Arts, Humanities & Ethics Electives, Social Sciences Electives, Free Electives, ECE 1100, and ECE 3005.

Courses that are cross-listed with ECE must be taken under the ECE number.

¹

Students must complete one Ethics course during their program. For a complete list of Ethics courses, please click here.

²

Minimum grade of C required.

³

Please select any academic course from the Schools of Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, or Physics.  Research credits may not apply to this requirement.

⁴

ECE electives are subject to School approval and must satisfy the following constraints:

1. All ECE courses at the 3000-level or higher, including approved special topics course.  Exclusions:  Junior Design Fundamentals Course (prerequisite for single-semester capstone) and ECE 3077 (used to satisfy Probability and Statistics requirement).
2. Special problems, undergraduate research, and similar courses may not be included, except for three credit hours for one ECE Undergraduate Research sequence, either ECE 3951+ ECE 3952 or ECE 4951+ ECE 4952. For students completing the Research Option but not an ECE UROP sequence, three credit hours for ECE 4699 may be included.

⁵

The following courses are not allowed: ECE 3710, ECE 3741, HPS 1XXX, LMC 2661, LMC 2662, LMC 3661, LMC 3662, MATH 1113, and PHYS 2XXX (AP Credit). Maximum of six credit hours of Special Problems or research may be applied toward the degree

⁶

CEE 3770 or ISYE 3770 or MATH 3670 or ECE 3077 (must be taken for Letter Grade basis)

⁷

Senior Design requirements may be satisfied in the following ways:

1. ECE two semester 4000 level ECE Culminating Design I + ECE Culminating Design II
2. Approved single-semester capstone (requires completion of the prerequisite ECE Design Fundamentals junior course, which counts as a free elective)

NOTE: Students may be able to use a VIP project in one of the above options to satisfy Senior Design provided they meet the requirements as outlined at the following VIP page. (see https://vip.gatech.edu/how-vip-credits-count)

⁸

No single course may be used to satisfy requirements in both selected threads.

1. If a course is required in both threads, it must be satisfactorily completed once and the second occurrence shall be replaced by an equivalent number of ECE 3000/4000 elective hours (excluding courses used to satisfy senior design or probability & statistics requirements).
2. If a course is required in one thread and optional (elective or pick list) in the second thread, it must be completed as required and may not be used to satisfy any element of the second thread.
3. If a course is optional (elective or pick list) in both threads, it may be counted once toward either thread, but not toward both.

⁹

The total number of available free elective hours will depend on choices made in the thread as well as the choice to fulfill Senior Design requirements according to note (7)

¹⁰

Hours satisfying Probability & Statistics requirement and threads requirements may share with minor requirements.
