OVERVIEW OF RELATIONSHIP AMONG COURSES FOR THE DEGREE |
| |
|
|
|
The undergraduate curriculums of the Electrical Engineering (ELEN) and Computer Engineering Programs in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University are dictated by the ABET accreditation requirements. As a consequence, the curriculums are very similar to that of most Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering Bachelor Degree programs throughout the United States. Table I defines the pre-requisites and co-requisites of the courses in the ELEN and CPEN Programs and those offered in support of the ELEN and CPEN Programs by the Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, and Chemistry Departments. A description of Electrical Engineering courses is provided in the back of this Handbook. All courses are required to be taken in the sequence shown. Together they provide the academic base on which the ELEN or CPEN degree candidates build their knowledge and skills for the specialized and professional oriented topics offered in the advanced elective courses (600 level). |
