Gain skills and knowledge to shape the future of technology.
Electrical engineering is filled with daring visionaries and bright minds who engage, imagine, and invent. We are the masters of power, energy, light, and systems that can turn science fiction into living, breathing science.
The smarts inside your smart home. Satellites that measure weather and climate. The sensing technologies that tell a self-driving car to watch for obstacles. The imaging tools that help physicians peer inside the human body. Electrical engineering makes it all possible.
Students can choose between three concentrations:
- Aerospace Concentration - provides an electrical engineering foundation and specialized training in the aerospace discipline, including deep-space communications, robotics, embedded systems, flight avionics, and more.
- Electrical Engineering Concentration - covers a broad range of electrical engineering subdisciplines and allows a student to focus on their area of interest.
- Lasers and Optical Engineering Concentration – teaches students how to harness light and its energy to create high-tech solutions.
