Introduction to Electrical Engineering

Relations:

It is not possible to register for the course B2B15UELA if the student is concurrently registered for or has already completed the course B2B15UEL (mutually exclusive courses).

During a review of study plans, the course B2B14ZEK can be substituted for the course B2B15UELA.

The requirement for course B2B15UELA can be fulfilled by substitution with the course B2B15UEL.

It is not possible to register for the course B2B15UELA if the student is concurrently registered for or has previously completed the course B2B14ZEK (mutually exclusive courses).
