- Departmental Requirements for a Minor in Statistical Science:
Four courses in Statistical Science at the 100-level, beyond STA 113 included in the sample program with the placeholders "STA Elective". It is suggested that students wishing to pursue a minor in Statistical Science discuss their specific program with the Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) in Statistical Science and with their ECE faculty adviser.
- WRITING 20: University Writing Program, required in first year.
- SS-H: Social Sciences & Humanities, 5 required semester-course electives, appropriately distributed.
- CHEM 21L: AP credit CHEM 19 is also acceptable.
- PHYSICS 61L & 62L: Matriculating students who have AP credit for PHYSICS 61L (but not 62L) take PHYSICS 62L; those who have AP credit for PHYSICS 61L and 62L take PHYSICS 63L; and international students who have credit for the equivalent of PHYSICS 51L & 52L take PHYSICS 143L.
- EE Concentration Electives: Four courses selected from the set approved for the EE program. Courses must be selected from at least two areas, and at least two courses must be from one area.
- STA Elective: One of the required courses at the 100-level or above in Statistical Science to meet Departmental Requirements for that minor. One of these courses could be ECE 255, which could also double as an ECE Elective, thereby freeing the ECE Elective to be a general Elective.
- Elective ECE Course: Any ECE course not otherwise included in the student's program.
- Approved Engineering Design Elective: Approved Electrical Engineering Design Elective, required in Junior or Senior year. Currently ECE 123, 135, 154, 164, 251 and 261 are approved. The same course may not be used to complete more than one concentration requirement and count as a required Design Elective.
- Independent Study: Accepted for Duke BSE course credits, the one elective ECE course, but not for other required courses.
