Curriculum
Electrical Engineering Curriculum (2024)
The Zhejiang University/University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Institute (ZJU-UIUC Institute) offers a joint dual-degree engineering program. Upon successful completion of the program, and after meeting the graduation requirements of both universities, students will obtain bachelor’s degrees separately from Zhejiang University (ZJU) and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC).
1.Overview
Electrical engineering is a multifaceted discipline that over the last century has produced an astounding progression of technological innovations that have shaped virtually every aspect of modern life. Electrical engineers need a broad and solid foundation in mathematics and physics to support their education in the engineering principles of analysis, synthesis, design, implementation, and testing of the devices and systems that provide the bedrock of modern energy, communication, sensing, computing, medical, security, and defense infrastructures. Within each sub-discipline one can find application domains that strongly rely on hands-on experimental work or that are based on theoretical, mathematical, and computational approaches. The multidisciplinary nature of electrical engineering education addresses the growing demand for the innovation and design of sensing, communication, computing, and decision-making systems of increasing complexity in consumer, defense, and medical applications.
The core curriculum focuses on fundamental courses on circuits, electromagnetics, solid-state electronics, and computer systems, leading to a comprehensive array of specialized courses and laboratories in all of the important areas of modern electrical engineering. These range from power and energy systems to electronic, opto-electronic, and photonic devices; integrated circuits; telecommunications and remote sensing; control systems; robotics; signal processing; and biomedical instrumentation and sensing.
Students are encouraged to take courses and participate in research projects in interdisciplinary areas with Civil and Environmental Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, and others during their junior and senior years.
2. Graduation Requirement
1) Grade Point Average Requirement
A student must maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0 (A=4.0) to remain in good standing and graduate.
2) Junior Eligibility Requirement
To be eligible to enroll in the ECE courses listed in the third year of the curriculum, a student must have completed, with a combined 2.25 grade point average, the mathematics, physics, computer science, and electrical and computer engineering courses listed in the first two years.
3) Curriculum Requirement
The curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering at UIUC requires 128 hours and is organized into required courses, technical electives, liberal education, and other electives.

*Students take ECE 445 to satisfy advance composition and technical elective requirement, and credits can be given for both.
For UIUC degree, in addition to the specific course and grade point average requirements listed above, each candidate for a bachelor’s degree from UIUC must meet the following requirements:
-
Residency Requirement: Earn a minimum 60 semester hours of UIUC credit, of which at least 21 hours must be 300 or 400 level UIUC credit courses.
-
Transfer Requirement: Have a satisfactory English Proficiency Test score on TOEFL, IELTS or others approved by UIUC, and maintain a good standing on academic studies that all term GPAs, overall GPA on UIUC courses are suggested to be above 2.5, and get admission through transfer applications during junior year, changing status from non-degree student to degree student.
For ZJU degree, in addition to the 128-hour requirement listed above, the curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Engineering from ZJU requires students to complete additional ZJU-required liberal education courses for domestic students and additional five courses in Chinese language and society study for international students. Please refer to section 5 for details.
