Double Major: 15-1 Management + Course 6-5 Electrical Engineering with Computing

This roadmap is an ‘MIT student optimized’ guide for structuring your schedule. Course 15 always encourages you to choose courses based upon interest, not by which ever checks off the most boxes. Please read the footnotes for additional options and email ugeducation@sloan.mit.edu or come see us in the Program Office (E52-150 Suite 133) to discuss.  Subjects that fulfill both Course 15 and Course 6-5 requirements are bold.

Notes:
¹Course 15/6 double majors have petitioned Course 6 to count 15.276 or 15.279 as a substitute for 6.UAT(EECS Additional Subject). Please note, though, Course 15 will not allow the reverse substitution (6.UAT will not substitute for 15.276 or 15.279.
²15.312 is no longer being offered. Students who have previously taken 15.312 can substitute this course for 15.301.
³18.05 can fulfill the Probability+Statistics requirement for Course 15 and is a 6-5 Math Subject. Course 15/6 double majors can also count 6.3700 to fulfill these Course 15 and Course 6 requirements.
⁴14.01 is a HASS subject.15.0111 is not a HASS subject. If students take 15.0111, the units will count toward the 180 units beyond GIR, and students will need to take another HASS subject.
⁵Up to two Course 6 courses or non-Course 15 courses can also count as 15-1 Concentration Electives, provided these subjects form an intellectually coherent 15- 1 Concentration.
⁶Please check the Course 6 website for list of subjects that fulfill each requirement bucket. Take note of prerequisites and semesters offered.
⁷Joint Course 15 HASS subjects (15.037J and15.039J) can count toward the HASS requirement and also towards the minimum three Course 15-1 Concentration Electives provided these subjects form an intellectually coherent 15-1 Concentration.

**For students considering an MEng in Course 6 and wanting to complete their MEng in one year, you may want to plan your course road with two “extra” courses that you can apply toward your MEng. If you are planning on getting funding through an RA-ship/TA-ship for your MEng, you are restricted to two courses per MEng semester. Having two “extra” courses to apply toward your MEng will allow the possibility of graduating in a year (an MEng is typically six courses plus thesis). These “extra” courses cannot be used towards fulfilling your undergraduate Course 6 requirements, GIRs, or 180 units beyond GIRs, but can count towards fulfilling your Course 15requirements. Please see the Course 6 website for a list of eligible courses and confirm with Course 6 in advance and prior to taking a specific course if you would like that course to count toward your MEng.
