EE 510 and EE 521 are the research area core courses in Area 4.
Out of Research Area Course:
Students enrolled in the program must take one course from any of the other research areas.
Mathematical Foundations Course:
Student enrolled in the program must take one course from the Mathematical Foundations Course List. If EE 502 is taken as a research area core course, one additional course is required from that list.
Elective Courses:
The course work can be completed by taking the courses in the EE Course List or any engineering and science departments.
