Electrical Engineering Major Coursework Credits
Minor/Related Field Credits (non-Electrical Engineering coursework in the Institute of Technology including mathematics and statistics. Any course taken outside of IT such as from the Carlson School of Management, needs to be approved in advance of taking the course by the Director of Graduate Studies)
(If you choose to minor in another department, minor courses must be in the lecture/exam format. Seminars, special investigations or directed studies type courses will not count toward degree requirements.)
Note: ME 5361, AEM 8401, CSci 5204, and CSci 8205 are courses which are cross-listed with Electrical Engineering. If you want to register for any of these courses, you must register using the EE call number and count it for major field credit. Outside department cross-listed course registrations will not be accepted toward degree requirements.
Note: Off-Campus research for your doctoral thesis must be approved by the Graduate Committee in advance
