Program Description

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers a variety of courses of study in this widely diversified field, especially at the graduate level.  The program leading to the B. S. degree in Electrical Engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (EAC/ABET).  The M.S. in Electrical Engineering degree has comprehensive examination or thesis options, and provides for specializations in communication systems, computer engineering, control systems, solid state electronics, and power systems.

Slightly confounding collection efforts in this broad area is the exclusion of the specific classification TK 5105 (which is in COMPC), covering “telecommunications” areas such as the Internet and the Web.
