Electrical and Computer Engineering Degree
Bachelor of Science (B.S.)
The degree in electrical and computer engineering is founded on the philosophy of providing the highest quality undergraduate education available, balancing a solid theoretical foundation with an equally strong practical training in the electrical and computer engineering discipline. The Electrical and Computer Engineering program stresses the importance of high-tech design and problem solving skills coupled with integrity and professionalism. The program of study is designed to prepare students for a rewarding and successful career. To give ECE majors the most flexibility after they graduate from the program, the courses provide a broad foundation in many areas of electrical and computer engineering.
The Electrical and Computer Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org, under the commission’s General Criteria and Program Criteria for Electrical, Computer, Communications, Telecommunication(s) and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.
