Electrical and computer engineers are involved in the design of electrically oriented systems for a wide range of applications in modern society. These systems or circuits range in size from miniature microprocessors through megawatt energy conversion systems to global audio and video communication. The electrical or computer engineer is active in every phase of the transmission, conversion, and processing of energy and information for civilian and defense industries, in our homes, and for healthcare.
Opportunities exist for bachelor’s degree holders to continue education at advanced degree levels or to enter such fields as medicine, law, or management.
The electrical engineering curriculum establishes a theoretical basis in circuits, electronics, electromagnetics, energy conversion, and controls. It includes a strong laboratory experience stressing system design and implementation.
The computer engineering curriculum establishes a theoretical basis for computer components in circuits, electronics, electromagnetics, digital systems, and microprocessors and for software in programming languages, algorithms, data structures, and operating systems. A strong laboratory experience stressing digital and microprocessor system design and implementation is included.
Through the four years, students are individually advised and counseled by the faculty. At various times during the year, engineers from industry are invited to speak to students on topics of current interest to the profession.
Educational objectives
The educational objectives of the electrical engineering and computer engineering programs are that (1) Graduates will become successful practitioners in engineering and other diverse careers; (2) Most graduates will pursue continuing education opportunities relevant to their careers; (3) Some graduates will pursue advanced degree programs in engineering and other disciplines; (4) Some graduates will pursue professional registration.
Student Outcomes
Student outcomes describe what students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation. These relate to the knowledge, skills and behaviors that students acquire as they progress through the program.
Both the computer engineering and electrical engineering programs will enable students to attain the following by the time of graduation:
