Bachelors of Science-Electrical Engineering
Program Description
The goal of the electrical engineering undergraduate program is to prepare graduates for positions as electrical engineers. Following initial
course work in mathematics and sciences, the engineering core classes build a solid base of engineering knowledge. Beyond the engineering
core, the electrical engineering curriculum includes a number of required electrical engineering and technical elective courses; areas include
systems, circuits, power, solid-state devices, electromagnetics and computer engineering. Approved technical elective courses provide students
with an opportunity either to broaden their background in electrical engineering or to study, in greater depth, technical subjects in which they
have special interest.
Career Opportunities
Graduates with the B.S.E. in electrical engineering find many exciting opportunities in industry. These include semiconductor chip designers and
manufacturers, electric power utilities, consulting companies, communication equipment and network providers, computers and peripheral
devices manufacturers and defense organizations. The degree also prepares graduates for continued learning experiences, either in a formal
graduate program or in continuing education applications.
