Note: 400-level electives may require 300-level pre-requisite courses. Biomedical Engineering students may count up to two of these 300-level
pre-requisites towards their Engineering Science electives.
Special topics courses in the 400 division that have been approved by the undergraduate curriculum committee chair and the director can be
counted here. With permission of the undergraduate curriculum committee chair, students may replace one engineering science elective with
an engineering science directed studies course or a special project laboratory course. Such replacements for an engineering science elective
must have four units and be 400 division courses.
