Electrical Engineering (BSEE)

Help Power the Technology that Shapes Our Daily Lives

As an electrical engineering major, you revolutionize the way we live. Society depends on electrical engineers to create, design, produce, operate and maintain the world™s equipment and services as well as to solve future life challenges with advances in science and technology.

Choose from four tracks available to align your educational path with your personal and professional goals. Throughout your coursework, explore the theory and methods related to the design, analysis and implementation of electrical engineering. You also gain first-hand experience in applying principles and practices to real-world scenarios. Upon graduation, you be ready to seek a wide variety of opportunities within the electrical engineering field in organizations of all sizes.

Communications and Signal Processing Track
Develop and apply theory and algorithms in the broad fields of communications, networked systems and signal processing. In this track, you have a variety of technical electives to choose from including wireless communication, satellite communication, communication networks, smart grid networks and image processing.

Comprehensive Track
In this track, you explore fundamental electrical engineering concepts. Cover key areas in the discipline such as communications and signal processing, controls, power and energy systems, electromagnetics, microelectronics, electronics, embedded systems and software, etc. Technical electives also provide more depth in one or more areas of electrical engineering.

Power and Renewable Energy Track
Gain an in-depth understanding of power system operation and control, renewable energy integration, machines, microgrid design and operation, power markets and data analytics. In this track, you have an opportunity for hands-on training in smart grid technologies. Choose from a diverse range of technical electives that cover the areas of power and renewable energy.

RF and Microwaves Track
In this track, you have the opportunity to take technical elective courses covering a wide range of topics in applied electromagnetics such as antennas, computational electromagnetics, high-speed circuits and systems, bioelectromagnetics, radar, remote sensing and wireless sensors.
