Bachelor of Science in
Electrical Engineering

General Education Requirements

For a full description of Embry-Riddle General Education guidelines, please see the General Education section of this catalog. These minimum requirements are applicable to all degree programs.

*

Approved by Program Coordinator

Students should be aware that several courses in each academic year may have prerequisites and/or corequisites (check the course descriptions before registering for classes to ensure requisite sequencing).

See the Common Year One outline in the Engineering Fundamentals Program Introduction. CS 223  is a required course for this degree program.

Degree Requirements

The Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering requires the successful completion of a minimum of 125 credit hours. Students should be aware that several courses in each academic year may have prerequisites and/or corequisites. The B.S. degree requires a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.00 in all EE, ES, CEC, EGR, and CS courses that fulfill any degree requirement.

The Electrical Engineering degree includes a space option in which EP 394, AE 427, and AE 445 will be taken for the ES elective, EE 420, and EE 421.

Students who are interested in robotics may take a robotics track within the EE program.  The suggested program of study follows the regular EE degree plan.

Electrical engineering majors are required to have a grade of C or better in all prerequisite courses for courses with the CS, CEC, EE, EGR, ES, or SE prefixes specifically listed in the catalog as required for the major.

Program Requirements

General Education

Embry-Riddle degree programs require students to complete a minimum of 36 hours of General Education coursework. For a full description of Embry-Riddle General Education guidelines, please see the General Education section of this catalog.

Students may choose other classes outside of their requirements, but doing so can result in the student having to complete more than the degree's 125-126 credit hours.  This will result in additional time and cost to the student.
