Program Overview

Electrical Engineering, B.S.E.E.

Learning Outcomes

Students earning a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering programs will be able to:

1. Identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. 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.
3. Communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. 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.
5. Function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.

General Elective (3 hours)

Selection of a general elective is restricted to courses outside the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The student is free to choose a course consistent with his or her career goals subject to departmental approval. It is strongly suggested that this elective be chosen to enhance the student’s oral and written communication skills. Students choosing to take a foreign language will use this elective plus one of the humanities and social science electives from the previous section. Foreign language study may require up to two additional credit hours. Degree credit will not be given for a single introductory semester of a foreign language.

Total: 124 hours

A student must complete each of the electrical engineering courses listed under the curriculum with at least a grade of “C” and an overall GPA of at least 2.0 in order to receive a degree in electrical engineering.
