Engineering and Computer Science. Stu-dents
who fail to maintain a 2.0 GPA in
courses within their major may be placed
on administrative academic probation.
Failure to eliminate the grade point defi-ciency
can result in disqualification from
the College of Engineering and Computer
Science.
Mandatory Advising
Students must complete mandatory advis-ing
with a faculty member at least once
during each academic year. Students who
fail to do so by the established deadline
(usually around the end of April) will be
prevented from participating in the STAR
registration process prior to the start of
classes.
Career Opportunities
According to a report by the American
Electronics Association, a shortage of elec-trical
and computer engineers is projected
for the next several years; it is anticipated
that computer engineering positions will
increase more than any other major profes-sion.
New developments are evolving in
optical communications, microelectron-ics,
intelligent controls, computers, radar,
microwave communications, and innova-tive
alternative energy sources at an explo-sive
pace which should assure a solid growth
pattern for electrical and computer engi-neers
into the foreseeable future.

Faculty and Facilities
The faculty, comprised of academically
well-qualified engineers, have a wide range
of teaching and industrial experience. Their
backgrounds include significant research
accomplishments, engineering teaching ex-perience,
consulting work, and related en-gineering
experience.
Excellent facilities are housed in the Engi-neering
East Building. A 52,000 square-foot
engineering building addition pro-vides
additional classroom space, faculty
offices, and expanded modern laboratories
that include: a microcomputer laboratory,
a CAD/CAM laboratory, and laboratories
for microprocessors and digital systems,
electronics, computer development, opti-cal
communications, digital control/robot-ics,
special projects, and power systems.

General Education
Select one course from each of the
G.E. areas: Area A1, A2, B2,
C1, D1, D2, D3. (See pages 92-
94 for G.E. listings.)
The following courses are
required to satisfy both G.E.
and additional requirements:
MATH 75 [B4], CHEM 1A
[B1], PHIL 20 [C2], ECE 1148
[IB], PHIL 120 [IC], PL SI 120
[M/I]
Additional requirements
MATH 76, 77, 81
PHYS 4A; PHYS 4B, 4BL;
PHYS 4C; choose one from
MATH 121, 123, 124, 128,
171, 181, 182
Total ................................................. 136
Note: Engineering majors are exempt from G.E.
Area A3, third course Area C, Area E, and Area
ID.
Advising Notes
1. Courses in mathematics, the physical sci-ences,
or engineering taken CR/NC are
not counted toward fulfillment of degree
requirements in electrical engineering.
2. Electrical engineering majors might con-sider
a math minor (see faculty adviser
for details).
3. Since the electrical engineering major cur-riculum
is very demanding, some stu-dents
not fully prepared in mathematics
and the physical sciences may take 4 1/2 or
more years to graduate rather than the
traditional 4 years. Students not fully
prepared in chemistry should consider
taking CHEM 3A and 4 in lieu of CHEM
1A. If needed, students may go to the
Learning Resource Center in Lab School,
Room 137 and request tutorial assistance.
