Electrical Engineering

The B.S.E. in Electrical Engineering Educational Objectives are a set of skills that are necessary to function successfully in modern engineering practice.

The objectives of the Electrical Engineering program are to produce graduates who will:

1. become successful practitioners in an engineering career or career requiring use of their engineering skills 
2. pursue graduate study, continuing education opportunities, and/or active participation in professional organizations in electrical engineering, computer engineering, mechatronics/robotics engineering, or other related disciplines
3. demonstrate leadership and excel in multidisciplinary and multicultural environments
4. function as responsible members of society.

Student Outcomes are a set of skills that assure the achievement of the program educational objectives. Before graduating, students will acquire the following key abilities:

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