BTW, Have any of you guys used or heard of Schaum's Outline of Calculus/Outline of Advanced Calculus? In case I just need to put the math on the backburner and review for taking it later, I've heard that these are good review books.

That makes a lot of sense. Even if I have to put the math on the backburner, I should still be able to get back into it by the Spring quarter at the latest. So, I should be done before I would start the official engineering courses in the major. Thanks!

As far as prereq's, I need Gen Chem I and Eng Physics I & II (mechanics and electromagnetism/oscillation). I will still need to take Eng. Phys. III (waves) later on. Calc IV is just a 5-credit Advanced Multivariable Calculus. I've heard from some people that they didn't think it was a good...

Thanks for the reply, Matt. Yeah, I know I need Diff Eq and Linear Alg. I guess to clarify I was just wondering if I should really try to take them ASAP as I just finished Calc 3 this summer. I'm starting to think that maybe this is a dumb question and a no-brainer. Thanks, Rod

Hello, I'm currently fulfilling prereq's for an engineering program and just finished Calculus III over the summer. I need to take some Chemistry and Engineering Physics to finish up my prereq's, and so I'm kind of placing emphasis here on what I need to get admitted to the program...

I was just thinking today that I would check and see if I could specialize in power generation/supply/distribution or in renewable/sustainable systems of electrical energy... Thanks for all of the feedback, guys. Rod

Thanks for the reply, Russ. Any other opinions out there? I'm going back and forth between Electrical and Civil, but I'll have all prereq's finished for EE sooner than I would for CE. Thanks again, Rod

Given the current state of the jobs market, would the current Electrical Engineers still encourage new Engineering majors to select EE? Thanks!
