<p>Ok...ive taken up electrical and Computer Engineering as my major and have gotten thru Cornell ED... I'm Int'l and have no idea abt the US system of education
Can someone please help me understand what this mean:</p>
<p><a href="http://cuinfo.cornell.edu/Academic/Courses/CoScourses.php?college=ENG&dept=Electrical+and+Computer+Engineering%5B/url%5D">http://cuinfo.cornell.edu/Academic/Courses/CoScourses.php?college=ENG&dept=Electrical+and+Computer+Engineering</a></p>
<p>Is this the course for only the first yr or for all 4 yrs...Please help because i want to get appropriate text books and start preparing..</p>
<p>Please help</p>
<p>Also,
Qoute from Cornell:
"In addition to 24 credits in the Core Courses, a minimum of 28 credits of Major Approved Electives are required as defined on the graduation checklist. These are broken down into Advanced ECE Electives and Technical Electives Outside of ECE . </p>
<p>Advanced ECE Electives are ECE courses at the 300-level or above. Please note that there are requirements that some of these courses be at the 400-level or above as described on the graduation checklist. The Outside ECE Electives include 9 credits of appropriate course work with a total of 3 credits at or above the 300-level. "</p>
<p>WHAT DOES THAT MEAN???</p>
<p>Could u guys please help me</p>
<p>It means that you have to take certain courses to graduate. Some are core courses--meaning they come first and are simpler material. Others are 300-level and above, meaning you take them in your latter years at Cornell and the material is more advanced. You will be taking core courses, then harder courses to graduate. That's all it means in a nutshell.</p>
<p>hmm...once u join College of Engineering...it says u dont immediately join ECE college...they say that there is a selection after some time based on ur grades at Cornell</p>
<p>When do u get to join ECE college...what's the criterion?
if u badly wanna do ECE, r there chanes u'll be not admitted and instead have to end up with some other course?</p>
