* Available alternates vary by location

** Four in Minnesota, where mathematics competency at the level of DeVry's Basic Algebra course must be demonstrated, through the placement process or successful completion of MATH-092, in order to graduate. MATH-102 is not taken.

Articulation agreements between DeVry's ECT and Electronics Engineering Technology and Computer Engineering Technology (Computer Technology in New York) programs exist at some locations for ECT graduates. ECT graduates can also pursue baccalaureate education in DeVry's Technical Management program. More information is available from participating sites.
