Don’t just study electrical and computer engineering — get experience as an electrical and computer engineer. Our students partner in research with organizations such as NASA, Department of Defense, and the National Science Foundation. Our program not only prepares future engineers and scientists for the world, but many of our graduates go on to become doctors, lawyers, managers, or teachers, too.
The electrical engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET. Students entering prior to Fall 2024 enrolled in the Bachelor of Electrical Engineering program, with an optional Computer Engineering concentration. Beginning in Fall 2024, new students enroll in the Bachelor of Electrical and Computer Engineering degree plan, in which students are required to select one of two tracks: Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering. For more information on each of these tracks and their specific requirements, please see below.
