Description
Our undergraduate degree program in electrical engineering trains students to be creative problem solvers, applying electrical engineering to problems related to renewable energy, communications, biomedical engineering and instrumentation, among other areas. At the undergraduate level, students can emphasize in biomedical engineering or renewable energy or pursue a general emphasis in electrical engineering.

Progression Standards
This major includes requirements to monitor progress toward graduation in four years. Students must complete these progression requirements by the semester indicated to ensure that they are making minimal progress in their degree program. Students should meet with their academic advisor at least once per semester to monitor their academic progress.
Students must complete the first year progression requirement before enrolling in upper-division engineering coursework. Students may attempt critical courses up to three times. Withdrawals count as attempts. Students who exceed the repeat limit are not making good academic progress and will be placed on program probation.
First Year
* Courses marked with an asterisk must be completed with at least a “C”.
Second Year
The following courses must be completed with at least “C”:
Third Year
The following courses must be completed with at least “C”:
I. University Core Curriculum Requirements (37-45 units)
NOTE: Refer to the Core Curriculum chapter of this catalog for information regarding the “Core English and Math Completion Policy”. A. English (3-8 units)
Refer to the “English” section of the Core Curriculum chapter in this catalog.
NOTE: Students who place in ENG 102 are not required to complete ENG 101 . B. Mathematics (4 units)
Refer to the “Mathematics” section of the Core Curriculum chapter in this catalog. C. Natural Sciences (8 units)
D. Social Sciences (3 units)
E. Fine Arts (3 units)
Students are strongly encouraged to take a three-unit course that satisfies the Core Curriculum Fine Arts and Diversity requirements, see list below. If the student is unable to take a class that fulfills both Fine Arts and Diversity, the student will need to take an additional course.
F. Core Humanities (9 units)
Refer to the “Core Humanities” section of the Core Curriculum chapter in this catalog. G. Capstone Courses (7 units)
H. Diversity (0-3 units)
Students are strongly encouraged to take a three-unit course that satisfies the Core Curriculum Fine Arts and Diversity requirements, see list below. If the student is unable to take a class that fulfills both Fine Arts and Diversity, the student will need to take an additional course.

Note(s):
* In addition to the general university requirements of at least a “C” (2.0) average for graduation, engineering students must earn at least a “C” in those courses designated with an asterisk (*) and must also maintain at least a “C” average in the Core Curriculum Mathematics, Natural Sciences, and the major requirements courses.
NOTE: EE 220L , EE 220 , EE 221 , CPE 201 and CPE 301 are offered every semester; EE 291 , EE 320L , EE 320 , EE 362 and EE 490 are offered during the fall semester; EE 120 , EE 330 , EE 340 , EE 370L , EE 370 and EE 491 are offered during the spring semester. General Emphasis
Senior-year technical electives consist of 24 units. Six units must include (i) upper division courses in biology, business, mathematics, chemistry, physics, computer science or mechanical engineering, or (ii) either CS 202 or ME 241 /CEE 241 , or (III) electrical engineering courses. The remaining eighteen units must be electrical engineering units chosen from courses in the six areas listed below. Students must have at least one course in the five areas of electronics, communications, control, fields, and power. Courses in each elective area are:
The remaining technical elective units may include:
At most, three units of internship may apply here. Renewable Energy Emphasis
This emphasis, administered by the EBME Department, leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering. The program is designed for the student seeking a degree in electrical engineering with an emphasis on renewable energy. The required courses are identical to those for a regular BS in EE degree. The senior year technical electives consist of 24 units.
At least twelve of these units must be taken from electrical engineering courses listed below:
The remaining technical elective units may include:
Biomedical Engineering Emphasis
This emphasis, administered by the EBME Department, leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering. The program is designed for the student seeking a degree in electrical engineering with an emphasis in biomedical engineering. Except for EE 340 , the required courses are identical to those for a regular BS in EE degree. Additional required introductory courses are BIOL 190 , BIOL 191 and CHEM 220A .
The senior year technical electives consist of 18 units.
Required Courses (10 units)
Technical Electives (8 units)
The technical electives units may include:
Internship
At most, three units of internship may apply here. |
