Undergraduate Programs

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers three undergraduate programs leading to the degree of bachelor of engineering in addition to two minors and two tracks. 

The three undergraduate programs are: 
  • Computer and Communications Engineering (CCE)
  • Computer Science and Engineering (CSE)
  • Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)​

Mission

We promote excellence in undergraduate and graduate education, research, and service to the profession at the regional and global levels. We offer world-class academic programs built upon a solid foundation of engineering, science, and liberal education. We prepare students to be professionals, capable of being leaders, entrepreneurs, and researchers, who deploy their skills with ingenuity, integrity, and responsibility.

The Computer and Communications Engineering program allows students to focus on the areas of communication systems, networks, or software systems. The computer science and engineering program allows students to focus on the areas of software engineering, systems and networks, cybersecurity, theory and algorithms, data science, or bioinformatics. The CSE program is offered in cooperation with the Computer Science Department of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. The Electrical and Computer Engineering program allows students to focus on the areas of power and energy systems, electromagnetics and radio frequency systems, or control and intelligent systems. The ECE and CCE programs also allow students to focus on electronics or computer systems.

All three programs require the completion of 150 credits including an internship and a final year project; and prepare students for professional careers as well as graduate studies.

The ECE department also offers a minor in biomedical engineering and a track in control and robotics, in addition to a minor and a track in artificial intelligence.

Undergraduate Programs Educational Objectives

The objectives of the ECE department undergraduate programs are to enable the graduates of the program to:
  • achieve their employment or post-graduate educational goals
  • advance in their careers through leadership, life-long learning, innovation, critical thinking, integrity, and civic responsibility.​

Track in Control and Robotics

The ECE track in control and robotics provides a coherent academic framework between the ECE and ME departments in the areas of control, instrumentation, and robotics. This track supports interested undergraduate ECE and ME students in pursuing additional control system modeling and design as given in either department based on their individual preferences. This track is open to all undergraduate ECE and ME students and will be indicated, upon its completion, on the transcript of participating students.

ECE students interested in taking the control and robotics track must satisfy the following course requirements.
  • EECE 460 (3 cr.)
  • EECE 461 (3 cr.)
  • EECE 460L (1 cr.)
  • One elective from list A (Control)
  • One elective from list B (Robotics)
  • One elective from either list A, B, or C
  • Total number of credits: 16
