Undergraduate Program Objectives
Objectives of the bachelor of science in electrical engineering are to develop graduates:
- who are immediately productive engineers and can advance their careers on different professional tracks in the engineering industry
- who can pursue graduate education in engineering or other fields such as business, medicine and law
These objectives are consistent with the mission of the University of Colorado Denver, congruent with the goals of the College of Engineering and Applied Science and reflective of the mission of the Department of Electrical Engineering.

The particular curriculum to be satisfied by each student is the one published in the catalog current at the time of his/her 30-hour senior checkout. A graduation agreement should be requested by each student after completing registration for his/her last semester. Additional information is contained in the “E E Advisement Guide.” Students should also refer to the section in this catalog on “Academic Policies of theCollege of Engineering and Applied Science .”
- Common core requirements of the College of Engineering and Applied Science are outlined in the section titled “Undergraduate Core Curriculum in Engineering ” in this catalog or in the “E E Advisement Guide.”
- All electrical engineering students must satisfactorily complete ELEC 4309, Senior Design Project I, and ELEC 4319, Senior Design Project II, in consecutive semesters.
- Professional electives may be selected from an approved list of upper-division or graduate-level courses or cooperative education. The electrical engineering advisor must be consulted prior to the selection of these electives.
- The engineering science elective may be satisfied by taking ENGR 3012, Thermodynamics.
- Seventeen semester hours of electrical engineering elective and specialty courses in association with the laboratories are required.
Laboratory Requirements
Students are required to take at least two laboratories out of the following six groups.Theory components are either prerequisites or corequisites to the laboratory components.The theory component may be taken as a specialty course. Other courses available (without any laboratory component) as electrical engineering specialty courses include the following:
Computer Engineering Option
Students can add a computer engineering emphasis to their electrical engineering degree program by making the following changes in the curriculum described above: First Semester
Substitute ELEC 3651 Digital Hardware Design for ELEC 3817 Engineering Probability and Statistics. Second Semester
Substitute ELEC 3817, Engineering Probability and Statistics for ELEC 3651 Digital Hardware Design, ELEC 3724 Power Laboratory, and a humanities and social sciences course. First Semester
Choose ELEC 4501, Microprocessor-based Design, and ELEC 4521, Microprocessor Laboratory, as one electrical engineering specialty and laboratory selection. Second Semester
Choose ELEC 4511, Hardware-Software Interface Design, ELEC 4561, Hardware-Software Laboratory, and a humanities and social sciences elective as professional elective and electrical engineering specialty and laboratory selections. |
