All courses listed below will automatically count as technical electives without completing a petition form. Advanced undergraduate courses (400-level courses) offered by the EME Department with MATH 141 as a prerequisite may count as technical electives upon approval of the student’s advisor and PNGE Program Chair. Students must complete a petition form with approval from both their advisor and the PNGE Program Chair for courses not on this list.
