  • Academic Learning Compact: Electrical Engineering

    Electrical engineering emphasizes development of the transmission and utilization of electric energy and intelligence. Electrical engineers design products and systems that meet the needs of today and tomorrow's electrical and electronic systems. You will be able to design communication systems; design the electronic components that run computers, motor vehicles, TVs, stereo systems and robots for automated factories; design aircraft and spacecraft control systems; design utility and industrial power systems; and design biological and biomedical systems.

    This program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.

    Additional information is available from the description of this major.

    Before Graduating You Must

    • Pass an assessment of performance on a major design experience. Assessment will be provided by two or more faculty and/or industry practitioners.
    • Pass assessment in two courses of individual assignments targeted to each learning outcome. Assessment will be provided by the instructor of the course according to department standards.
    • Complete an exit interview in your final semester.
    • Complete requirements for the baccalaureate degree, as determined by faculty.

    Assessment Types:
    Classroom-format classes: assessment is by means of a focused question on assignments or exams. Laboratory-format classes: assessment is by evaluation of a lab report or quiz.
    Assessments also include design and programming projects, data analysis, team work, reports and presentations.
