1
SIEO W3600, STAT W4105, and SIEO W4150 can be used instead of IEOR E3658, but W3600 and W4150 may not provide enough probability background for
elective courses such as ELEN E3701. Students completing an economics minor who want such a background can take IEOR E3658 and augment it with STAT
W1211.
2
If possible, ELEN E3081 and ELEN E3084 should be taken along with ELEN E3201 and ELEN 3801 respectively, and ELEN E3083 and ELEN E3082 taken with
ELEN E3331 and CSEE W3827 respectively.
3
COMS W3261 can be taken one semester later than pictured.
4
The total points of technical electives is reduced to 12 if APMA E2101 has been replaced by MATH E1210 and either APMA E3101 or MATH V2010.
5
Assuming technical electives taken Semesters VII and VIII, and 9 points of nontechnical electives taken Semesters VI, VII, and VIII.

least 15 points of 6000-level ELEN,
EECS, CSEE, or COMS courses
(exclusive of seminars). No more than
9 points of research may be taken
for credit. No more than 3 points of a
nontechnical elective (at or above the
4000 level) may be included. A minimum
GPA of at least 2.7 must be maintained,
and all degree requirements must
be completed within five years of the
beginning of the first course credited
toward the degree.
