Technical Complementaries (5 courses) 15 credits

Students following the Honours Program should take 5 courses at the 500-level (or ECSE 427, ECSE 451).  Students must choose the courses so that they complete at least 9 credits in one of the 5 areas of  specialization. (With Departmental approval, the Honours Thesis (ECSE 498 & ECSE 499) can count as 6 of the 9 credits.)  The remaining courses may be any at the 500-level offered by the Department. The choice is not restricted.  However, please note that probably not all the courses listed will be offered in any given year. Please refer to the up-to-date course assignments (posted on the Undergraduate Bulletin Board) before selecting any course. Permission will not be granted to take Technical Complementary courses outside the Department.
