* except seminars and special topics courses, which may be reviewed for technical content
+ AP, A-level, and Int'l. Baccalaureate hours in marked courses cannot be used as technical elective hours
‡ All courses cross listed as ECE courses are counted as ECE courses, i.e. MATH 487 is the same as ECE 493, CS 425 is the same as ECE 428, so they are both counted as ECE hours for tech elective purposes.
