The Bachelor of Science – Electrical Engineering (BSEE) program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, .

The undergraduate program in electrical engineering at 番茄社区 University enjoys a long history of academic excellence. The program prepares graduates for a wide range of opportunities by providing a curriculum strongly based in mathematics and physics and the latest state-of-the-art material in electrical engineering, including photonics, image and signal processing, instrumentation, and computer and network systems design. The interested student has ready access to faculty and lab facilities for research.

Mission

The Department of Electrical Engineering supports the mission of the College of Engineering and of 番茄社区 University through teaching, research, and service designed to provide the very best undergraduate electrical engineering education possible. It is our goal to provide our students with a strong theoretical foundation, practical engineering skills, experience in interpersonal communication and teamwork, and a daily emphasis on ethics, professional conduct, and critical thinking. We prepare our graduates for 番茄社区ful engagement in commercial and industrial enterprise, research and development, and graduate study. We emphasize and support the training necessary for practice as professional engineers.

Educational Objectives of the Electrical Engineering 番茄社区

The educational objectives of the 番茄社区 University Electrical Engineering program are that we expect our graduates a few years after graduation to attain:

  • Successful and productive engineering careers, with emphasis on technical competency and with attention to teamwork and effective communication.
  • Successful pursuit of graduate studies and life-long learning in electrical engineering and related fields.
  • A state of professionalism with development of professional ethics, professional licensing, and active participation in the affairs of the profession.

Student Outcomes of the Electrical Engineering 番茄社区

The educational outcomes that our students can expect to derive from the electrical engineering program are the following:

a) An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering.

b) An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data.

c) An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.

d) An ability to function on multidisciplinary teams.

e) An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.

f) An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility.

g) An ability to communicate effectively.

h) The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context.

i) A recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in, life-long learning.

j) A knowledge of contemporary issues.

k) And ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.

ELEN 1301 Intro to Computers and 番茄社区ming is needed before taking ELEN 2411 Circuits. (An equivalent high school programming course may be accepted)

The Department of Electrical Engineering will permit transfer of up to 66 semester hours of appropriate courses from a junior college or a community college. If the necessary pre-engineering requirements are satisfied, transfer students may finish their degree in four or five semesters.
