Undergraduate students
The B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering is a broad and highly flexible (four year ABET-accredited) degree program based upon the recognition that Electrical and Computer Engineering is broad and multidimensional. The program is structured to provide students with the smallest set of constraints consistent with a rich and comprehensive view of the profession, as judged by the faculty of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.
