Good to know

Total credits
20 minimum, earned from the basket applicable to the student's major
Open to
Mechanical, Civil, Chemical and Computer Science & Engineering majors, and non-engineering students
Structure
Four pathway-specific baskets, each with its own eligibility conditions

Fine print

  • M = mandatory within the basket; ● = available in the basket; P = pre-requisite, not counted towards the minor; — = not part of that basket.
  • The basket totals show what is on offer, not what must be completed: the requirement is 20 credits.

Why pursue this

  • Foundational skills in circuits, signals and systems that sit underneath most modern hardware and instrumentation.
  • Interdisciplinary advantage in embedded systems, robotics, instrumentation and energy — fields where electrical knowledge is the limiting factor for students from other disciplines.
  • Career and higher-study prospects in electronics, communications, power, semiconductors and control, and a base for postgraduate study in the area.

Electrical and Computer Engineering

Department of Electrical Engineering / Electrical and Computer Engineering

The Minor in Electrical and Computer Engineering covers signals, digital and analogue electronics, electromagnetics, control, machines and power systems, with electives reaching into sensors, nanoelectronics, communication and energy systems. Four separate baskets are defined so that entry requirements and course selection match the student's own major. A student earns the minor by completing a minimum of 20 credits from the basket applicable to them.
