Required study includes electronics, microprocessors, digital circuit design, control systems, communication systems, power systems, signal processing, and software. Electives can then be chosen to learn more about any of the above fields or even bioengineering. It allows more freedom in choosing electives than Computer Engineering, and thus is a very flexible degree that allows the holder to work on a wide variety of applications utilizing vastly different skills.
This allows our graduates to choose careers best fitting their exact interests. For instance, some of our graduates develop complex new mathematical algorithms to achieve the highest possible system performance; others work with basic physics to develop better circuits and devices; others work outside in the field to improve the generation and transmission of electric power; some become high level executives at companies like Google; others complete law or medical degrees.?
The Bioengineering option of Electrical Engineering provides the right training to design medical instruments and with a few additional courses becomes a full Pre-Med or Pre-Dental major.? After graduating, our students have gone on to the world?s best graduate programs: Stanford, MIT, Johns Hopkins, etc.? ?
