PSU's Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science
The electrical engineering degree in the Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science will provide you with a background in the electrical sciences. You will gain the skills necessary for employment in the electrical engineering field. This includes power systems, electromagnetics, and acoustics, signal processing, analog/radio frequency design, digital/very-large-scale integration, among other areas. Students interested in focusing on software development should explore computer science.
We Offer:
- Hands-on experience early in the program. You will learn hardware interfacing and project management. You will get to interact with the technology in our teaching labs. We also have a one-of-a-kind Electronics Prototyping Lab, where you can walk in with an idea and walk out with a working prototype.
- Valuable work experience through internships. We help our students take part in Engineering Work Experience (EWX) and Multiple Engineering Co-Op Program (MECOP). These competitive programs offer paid internships at Intel, Mentor Graphics, Daimler Trucks, and other local tech companies.
- Expert faculty who bring the best research and real-life perspectives into the classroom. Our faculty tackle some of the world's most pressing issues. They protect the power grid, develop new sensors to treat Parkinson's disease, and use machine learning to solve problems ranging from air and water pollution monitoring to geothermal energy prospecting. You will learn to develop technologies to make your own unique impact on society.
We offer a fast path to a graduate degree with our 4 + 1 and bridge programs. Full-time students can earn bachelor's and master's degrees in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 5 years. Post-Baccalaureate students have the option of skipping the bachelor's degree and going right into our bridge program, which prepares you for graduate school admission with a specialized ECE undergraduate curriculum.
Our Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission / ABET (EAC/ABET).
