Electromagnetics is all theory, so much so it’s been dropped from most EE curriculums for being to difficult.

I wish my school would have done that, those were terribly intensive and not really stimulating like signals was.

I ate it up, but then I’m an RF/Microwave EE. Grad level EM is even worse.

I think you could get away with swapping out upper level algorithms and systems courses and swapping in statistics and ML. I've used my OS class 0 times in my career. The class I've used the most was the second level statistics class I took for my econ minor.

definitely, and your algorithms class was probably industry-driven and an exposure to what you should be doing to write code in the workforce, not teaching you to come up with novel algorithms.
