Double Major: Electrical Engineering & Computer Science

The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department offers double majors in electrical engineering/computer science and electrical engineering/physics. Students must adhere to the University and College policies on double majors. All curriculum requirements in engineering must be satisfied. Students should inform both departments and colleges by the start of their junior year and submit a program for approval to the departments involved with the dean approving a declaration of a double major. A declaration of a second major form must be submitted to the Office of Enrollment. Students may not present less that 57 credits outside the two major fields in order to satisfy the minimum degree requirments of 120.

Total Degree Credits = 136 Credit Hours
