==== Winter Quarter CCRMA Electives to Consider ====

There are 5 units available in a standard 15-unit load.  Note that you can free up more elective units by charting a non-DSP depth track with your advisor.  The list of electives below is not exhaustive.  Please feel free to add your own choices for others to consider!  See the [#Links] section below for pointers to all available courses.
