*A maximum of three Software Engineering for Engineers 519 courses can be selected as technical electives.

** A maximum of one of Biomedical Engineering 509 or Biomedical Engineering 515 can be selected as technical electives.

Note: Selection of a course not on this list requires department approval. Elective courses are offered, in any calendar year, at the discretion of the department.

Note: Computer Science 471, Data Base Management Systems, may be used as a technical elective only by students whose programs did not include Computer Science 471 as a required course. Students may not take Computer Science 471 as a technical elective if they have already completed Software Engineering for Engineers 519.31.

Note: All technical elective courses have similar workloads even though the hours in the timetable are variable. One 500-level or higher course from either the Faculty of Science or the Schulich School of Engineering may be approved by the Associate Head or by the Program Director as a technical elective. Optional undergraduate courses and all graduate courses are offered, in any calendar year, at the discretion of the department.
