ECE Program Information


***PLEASE NOTE*** The official policies & requirements for the curriculums of all 4 ECE majors have changed considerably since Fall 2004.  Information listed on websites and other handouts are simply for convenience but do not supplant the policy in the UCSD General Catalog.

The ECE department has 4 majors, here’s an overview of each:

  1. Electrical Engineering
  2. Engineering Physics
  3. Computer Engineering (joint program w/CSE dept.)
  4. Electrical Engineering & Society B.A.
  • Electrical Engineering & Engineering Physics Majors
    If you have questions about what classes to take, when to take them, how to navigate the program, see the link below and the UCSD General Catalog.

    Electrical Eng. & Eng. Physics Course Requirements

  • Computer Engineering Major
    The requirements for the Computer Engineering major at the ECE dept. & the requirements for the Computer Engineering major at the CSE dept. are identical. The only difference is that CE majors are administered by both departments. However, the degrees are the same, the courses are the same and the material you learn is exactly the same. Please know which department you're affiliated with because that's where your primary major advisors will be. For course requirements, please refer to ECE portion of the UCSD general catalog and curriculum guides below.

  • 4-Year Curriculum Guides (EE/EP/CE majors)
    These plans are suggestions for when to take your classes. They take into consideration prerequisites and when classes are offered, and can be very helpful!
