Notes
- ENGE 1024 (2C) + ENGE 1104 (2C) can be fulfilled with ENGE 1434 Fundamentals of Engineering (5C).
- ENGE 1104 can be fulfilled with ENGE 1114 Exploration Engineering Design (2C) + ENGE 1204 Digital Future Transition (1C).
- Some Area 7 classes also count as UCCLE in Areas 2 or 3, and some Area 2 and 3 classes also count as UCCLE in Area 7. Double counting Area 7 with Area 2 or 3 increases the number of required free electives.
- Art 1004 and FA 2004 are offered on a Pass/Fail basis only.
- All students must complete the University foreign language requirement before graduation.
EE Major
- Admission to the EE degree program is governed by CoE and ECE restricted majors' guidelines.
- All ECE courses require a C- or better in prerequisite courses.
- Free electives or Area 6 courses offered on a Pass/Fail only basis may be taken under the Pass/Fail grading option.
- Cumulative/overall and in-major GPAs of 2.0 or higher are required for graduation. In determining the EE in-major GPA, all ECE courses, including repeats, are used. CS 1044, if taken before Fall 2004, will also count in the in-major GPA calculation.
- Non-degree courses are those which do not satisfy graduation requirements, including free electives. The list of non-degree courses includes all courses on the "Non-Degree Credit Courses" list, which is updated annually and published on the College of Engineering Undergraduate Academic Affairs website at www.eng.vt.edu.
- A total of 132 credits are required for graduation with a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering.
University Policy 91- Progress Toward Degree
University Policy 91 outlines university-wide minimum criteria to determine if students are making satisfactory progress towards the completion of their degrees. The ECE Department fully supports the policy. Specific expectations for satisfactory progress for Electrical Engineering majors are as follows:
- Each student must meet the minimum University-wide criteria as described in Policy 91 and summarized in the Undergraduate Course Catalog and Academic Policies catalog.
- Additionally, upon completion of 60 credits, EE students must have satisfactorily completed ECE 2014, ECE 2004, MATH 2214 and 2224, and PHYS 2306.
- Upon completion of 90 credits, EE students must have successfully completed 33 credits of in-major courses (including ECE 2534) and have 2.0 overall and in-major GPAs.
