Electrical and Computer Engineering (B.S.)

The Bachelor of Science program in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Wayne State University is designed to provide students with a comprehensive education in the principles and practices of electrical and computer engineering.

Overview

In addition to the Undergraduate Program Goals for the James and Patricia Anderson College of Engineering, the specific objectives of the Bachelor of Science program in Electrical Engineering include:

• an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
• an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
• an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
• an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
• an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
• an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
• an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.

Admission Requirements

For admission to the Bachelor of Science program, students must satisfy the admission criteria of the Division of Engineering, James and Patricia Anderson College of Engineering.
