English Proficiency
The department requires a grade of C or better in Engl 104, 105 (or 105H), and 314 (or 314H).

Transfer Grade Requirements
The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department requires a grade of C or better for any transfer credit course that is applied to the degree program.

1-General Education Electives-Students must propose and have approved by their faculty adviser a general education program of 15 credits that meets the university diversity and international perspectives requirements and an objective developed by the student. Courses chosen must not be remedial courses in the university, six (6) credits must be chosen at the 300 level or higher, and courses in engineering, Computer Science, physical and mathematical sciences must not be included. Pass-Not Pass credit is not accepted.

2-Computer Engineering, Computer Science, and general technical electives must be chosen to satisfy departmental requirements concerning content, distribution, and level. All technical electives must be chosen from lists approved by the department. Details are available in the E CPE Undergraduate Student Services Office or on the Web. Pass/not pass credit not accepted. Six credits of Computer Engineering, three credits of Computer Science, and 12 credits of general technical electives are required. One credit of 490 may be used to partially meet these requirements.

3-The student must choose one of the following math/Stat courses (pass/not pass credit not accepted): Math 273, 307, 314, 317, 365, 385, 395, 471 or 481, Stat 322, 330. Credit in 490 may not be used to fulfill this elective requirement.

4-Outcomes Assessment- Students are required to prepare and to maintain a portfolio of their technical and non-technical skills. This portfolio is evaluated for student preparation during the student's curriculum planning process. Results of the evaluation are used to advise students of core strengths and weaknesses. Prerequisite material exams may be given at key points in the curriculum. These exams are to assist student evaluation of progress made during the academic experience as the material covered in several courses are the foundation of more advanced courses. The results of these assessments are also used to evaluate the curriculum and to implement improvements.

*Core professional curriculum. A student must have a minimum grade-point average of 2.00 in this group of courses in order to
graduate.
