Notes:

  1. There are eleven electives. As detailed above, these electives must include four advanced technical electives, two science electives, and four linkage electives. For their remaining elective, students may choose to take any of an additional advanced technical elective, an additional science elective, any course from the complementary studies electives lists, a foreign-language linguistics or grammar course, BUS 111W, BUS 121W (see Wilfrid Laurier University calendar), COMM 400, or any other course approved by the SE Program Advisor. Advanced Technical Electives may not be taken before the 3A term; 400-level Advanced Technical Electives may not be taken before the 3B term.
  2. Students enrolled in Software Engineering will only be permitted to use the WD and WF (see Grading System for descriptions) provisions used in the Faculty of Mathematics to withdraw from extra courses taken above and beyond the degree requirements.
  3. Foreign-language courses must be approved by the SE advisor.
  4. With the permission of the Program Advisor, ECE 358 may be swapped with a 3A or 3B technical elective if required as a prerequisite for an ATE.

Advanced technical electives (ATEs)

Four Advanced Technical Electives (ATE):

The advanced technical electives comprise primarily fourth-year course offerings in CS or ECE. Students are advised to plan ahead when selecting ATEs. Most ATEs are not offered every term, and some ATEs have other ATEs as pre-requisites. Other courses may be approved by the Program Director. Courses offered by the Department of Systems Design Engineering require instructor consent.

One of the following CS courses (CS List):
CS 442 Principles of Programming Languages
CS 444 Compiler Construction
CS 448 Database Systems Implementation
CS 449 Human Computer Interaction
CS 450 Computer Architecture
CS 452 Real-time Programming
CS 454 Distributed Systems
CS 457 System Performance Evaluation
CS 458 Computer Security and Privacy
CS 473 Medical Image Processing
CS 484 Computational Vision
CS 485 Machine Learning: Statisticaland Computational Foundations
CS 486 Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
CS 488 Introduction to Computer Graphics
 

One of the following ECE courses (ECE list):
