� Normally recommended.
�� Alternatively, Informatics 2A or Informatics 2B, with permission of the Head of School.
# Entry to fourth year MEng normally requires an average mark of 55% in third year, at the first attempt.
��� Pre-requisites for 5th year courses are (a) Electronic/Electrical System Design 5: Digital Signal Analysis 4 and Digital Communications 4. Care should be taken to ensure that a reasonable balance between courses delivered in semester 1 and semester 2 is maintained.
@ Analogue Electronics (Circuits) 4 and Analogue Electronics (CMOS Design) 4 are both co-requisites for Analogue Electronics 4 (Project).
