Elective courses in years three and four are to be chosen from Electives Lists A and B (shown under fourth year), and by consulting suggested Streams and prerequisite paths. Your complete degree program must:
1) Exceed the minimum Accreditation Units (AU) set by ECE in each CEAB category.
2) Have at least 5 courses from Electives List A.
3) Have at least 5 four-hundred level elective courses.
4) Result in a total of not less than 116.5 credits counting all courses for second, third and fourth years (remaining AU balance is shown below after each year).
Available combinations of elective courses are subject to timetabling constraints.

Course Prerequisites
Normally, registration in a course offered by the ECE Department is allowed provided a mark of at least 50 percent has been achieved in each of the prerequisites for the course. Students having one course prerequisite (numbered 200 or higher) with a mark between 40 and 50 percent may still be able to register in a course offered by the Department provided their cumulative average is at least 65 percent at the end of the previous session. Prerequisites are listed under the calendar description for each course.
Complementary Studies
Refer to the Complementary Studiessection of this calendar for details regarding the requirements for all Engineering programs. For the Electrical Engineering Program, the Engineering Economics course is APSC 221, and the Communications course is APSC 293 (1 credit of communications units are also included in course ELEC 490).
