In addition to Discovery Program requirements, the department has a number of grade-point average and course requirements: Any computer engineering major whose cumulative grade-point average in ECE and computer science courses is less than 2.0 during any three semesters will not be allowed to continue as a computer engineering major. Computer engineering majors must achieve a 2.0 grade-point average in ECE and CS courses as a requirement for graduation. To make an exception to any of these departmental requirements based on extenuating circumstances, students must petition the department's undergraduate committee. Mindful of these rules, students, with their adviser's assistance, should plan their programs based on the distribution of courses found in the Degree Plan tab.
