A balanced education in fundamental principles, design methodologies, and practical experiences in electrical engineering and in general engineering topics through which graduates can enter into and sustain lifelong professional careers of innovation and creativity.

The overriding objective of the electrical engineering program is to provide graduates with the skills and understanding needed to design and build innovative new products and services that balance the rival requirements of competitive performance/cost and practical constraints imposed by available technologies.

Graduates of the Electrical Engineering program will:

Be recognized as innovative technical experts who demonstrate advanced understandings of the state-of-the-art in electrical engineering, as well as their professional, social and ethical responsibilities.
Emerge as technical leaders through their own individual contributions and their abilities to work with and influence others.
Function as effective entrepreneurs who nurture new technologies from concept to commercialization

Student Outcomes

By the time of graduation, electrical engineering students will attain:

an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors
an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts
an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives
an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies
