The Department of Electrical and Computer
Engineering offers a degree program in Electrical Engineering as well as a
degree program in Computer Engineering in conjunction with the computer science
department of the school of science.
Electrical Engineering
The Electrical Engineering program was founded in
1892 and has been in existence continuously since 1935. The department
offers a strong contemporary curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Science in
Electrical Engineering degree.
Wide in scope and variety, electrical
engineering ranges from design of solid state devices and increasingly complex
microcircuits to design of communication systems or large scale power generating
equipment and plants to meet society's accelerating demand for clean energy. The
fundamental principles of information processing and control inherent in an
electrical engineer's background find applications in such diverse areas as
industry and medicine.
Computer Engineering
The application of computer-based technology is
growing at a phenomenal rate. In fact, it pervades our lives. As a result, there
is ongoing demand for engineers who can build complex systems which integrate
computer hardware and software. This has given rise to the field of computer
engineering. By combining the core courses in electrical engineering and
computer science, the computer engineering curriculum prepares students to enter
this challenging new field.
