Various petitions online: Modification of Major (sub one course for another, generally done for ECE 491 to Technical Electives), General petition (to take classes simultaneously, to go beyond 18 credit hours, Miscellaneous), Proposal for Undergraduate Research (that and Mod of Major to count ECE 392 as Tech. Elective)
Pre-req waiver form for ECE
ECE 392 Undergraduate research:
to take this course, contact an instructor (professor in ECE) and agree upon a topic and number of credit hours (1 credit hour is roughly 4 hours of work a week) for your undergraduate research. I suggest 1-2 credit hours. Then fill out this form and have your instructor and the DUGS sign off before sending to ECE student affairs. If you would like to receive technical elective credit for this, you can petition that using a modification of major form, which again must be approved by the DUGS. Note that this will count as one of 2 technical elective courses permitted at the 300 level.
