Planning Your Program

The electrical and computer engineering flowcharts below are a tool to help you plan for and manage your class schedules at Iowa State. While the flowcharts are designed to show a four-year plan, it is easy to adjust the time frame to suit your needs.

The flowcharts on this site should be used as a supplemental method of understanding how your classes work together within your degree program. The primary method is reading the catalog and course descriptions. You can use a flowchart (below) to help plan the registration process.

Flowcharts are updated regularly—approximately once a semester. Make sure you use the most recent version produced for your catalog. The file at the top of the list for electrical engineering (EE) and computer engineering (CprE) are the most recent.
