ECSE is an abbreviation for Electrical Engineering and Computer science Computer Sciences and Systems theory Systems Engineering . It is a designation used at some University universities for the major or department that blends these three fields together. One reason behind linking the areas of study is to provide students with a broad overview of each of software , hardware and Systems theory . However there are also reasons for not blending departments Students who major in theoretical computer science, studying such topics as algorithm analysis and software engineering, may not have any use for extensive electrical engineering or systems theory classes. Fact date December 2008 Not every university uses the ECSE designation. Several universities, for example, have separate EE ECE and CS departments majors. Other schools use the similar Electrical and Computer Engineering ECE Electrical and Computer Engineering designation.

An external degree is a Academicdegreedegree offered by a university to students who have not been required to be physically present within the geographic territory of the institution. These undergraduates may be called external students and may study at classes unconnected with the university, or independently, or by distance learning . They may obtain the degree by passing examinations once they have reached the required standard, or by having successfully completed a programme put together from various courses or modules.

In various UK towns university college s were established, where students could study towards a London external degree. The colleges were among the approved centres for London s exams.

The degree of polymerization , or DP, is usually defined as the number of structural unit monomeric unit s in a macromolecule or polymer or oligomer molecule. ref http www.iupac.org goldbook D01569.pdf IUPAC Definition in Compendium of Chemical Terminology IUPAC Gold Book ref ref Cowie J.M.G. Polymers Chemistry and Physics of Modern Materials 2nd edn Blackie 1991 , p.10 ref ref Allcock H.R., Lampe F.W. and Mark J.P. Contemporary Polymer Chemistry 3d edn Pearson Prentice Hall 2003 , p.316 ref For a homopolymer, there is only one type of monomeric unit and the molar mass distribution Number average molecular weight number average degree of polymerization is given by math DP n frac text Total MW of the polymer text MW of the monomer unit equiv X n frac M n M 0 math For most industrial purposes, degrees of polymerization in the thousands or tens of thousands are desired. Some authors, however, define DP as the number of repeat unit s, where for copolymer s the repeat unit may not be identical to the monomeric unit. ref Fried J.R. Polymer Science and Technology Pearson Prentice Hall, 2nd edn 2003 , p.27 ref ref Rudin A. Elements of Polymer Science and Engineering Academic Press 1982 , p.7 ref For example, in nylon 6,6 , the repeat unit contains the two monomeric units NH CH sub 2 sub sub 6 sub NH and OC CH sub 2 sub sub 4 sub CO , so that a chain of 1000 monomeric units corresponds to 500 repeat units. The degree of polymerization or chain length is then 1000 by the first IUPAC definition, but 500 by the second.
