The educational objectives for the undergraduate program, which leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering, are to produce graduates who:

  • Are recruited in a competitive market and valued as reliable and competent employees by a wide variety of industries, in particular, electrical and computer engineering industries;
  • Succeed, if pursued, in graduate studies such as engineering, science, law, medicine, business, and other professions;
  • Understand the need for life-long learning and continued professional development for a successful and rewarding career; and
  • Accept responsibility for leadership roles in their profession, in their communities, and in the global society.

    • Therefore, the electrical engineering curriculum is designed to provide students with knowledge of scientific principles and methods of engineering analysis to form a solid foundation for a career in design, research and development, manufacturing and processing, measurement and characterization, or management. Students progressively build their design experience throughout the curriculum and demonstrate this ability in the senior electrical engineering design laboratories. The curriculum also introduces students to subjects in the humanities, social sciences, and ethics so they may better understand the interaction of technology and society.
