BS Electrical and Computer Engineering

The Electrical and Computer Engineering program involves the study of hardware software communications and the interactions between them Its curriculum focuses on the theories principles and practices of traditional electrical engineering and mathematics and applies them to the design of computers and computer-based devices Electrical and Computer Engineering students study the design of digital hardware systems including communications systems computers and devices that contain computers They study software development focusing on software for digital devices and their interfaces with users and other devices The program emphasizes a balanced approach between hardware and software both built on an engineering and mathematics foundation Currently a dominant area within Electrical and Computer engineering is embedded systems the development of devices that have software and hardware embedded within For example devices such as cell phones digital audio players digital video recorders alarm systems X-ray machines and laser surgical tools all require integration of hardware and embedded software and all are the result of computer engineering The undergraduate program is structured to establish analytical thinking and design skills in areas such as computer architecture digital logic design circuits analysis computer communication networks digital computer control integrated circuit engineering project management VLSI design digital signal processing and embedded systems
