- There are eleven electives. As detailed above, these electives must include three advanced technical electives, two science electives, and three linkage electives. For their remaining three electives, students may choose to take additional courses from the elective lists above or any other 0.5 credit course for which they meet the requisites. Advanced Technical Electives may not be taken before the 3A term.
- Students may choose to take three electives in 4A and four electives in 4B, instead of two in 4A and five in 4B.
- 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.
- With the permission of the Program Advisor, ECE 358 may be taken in 3A or 3B and replaced with a technical elective in 4A if required as a prerequisite for an ATE.
- Students may replace STAT 206 and one of their unrestricted electives with the combination of STAT 230and STAT 231.
- The Linkage elective on Communication is normally taken in the 2A term. It must be completed with a grade of at least 60% prior to enrolling in the 3A term.
Advanced technical electives (ATEs)
The advanced technical electives comprise 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 prerequisites. Other courses may be approved by the Program Director.
