Engineering Department is committed, through close partnership with the
community, to providing quality education that prepares graduates through a
project-based learning to be professionals and to pursue graduate studies and
research. The department is also committed to research that leads to better
solutions to electrical engineering-related problems with emphasis on issues of
national significance by working closely with industry and research centers.
Program Educational Objectives (PEOs):
Within a few years of graduation, Electrical Engineering graduates are expected to attain the following program educational objectives:
v Become technically competent engineers for a successful and productive career in the electrical engineering profession, OR
v Pursue graduate studies and research in electrical engineering, AND
v Demonstrate effective communication and teamwork skills in a diverse environment with an integrative perspective to solving electrical engineering problems, AND
v Engage in life-long learning for the purpose of continuous improvement.
These are the same outcomes as articulated by ABET and are listed below:
(a) An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering.
(b) An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data.
(c) An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.
(d) An ability to function on multidisciplinary teams.
(e) An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.
(f) An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility.
(g) An ability to communicate effectively.
(h) The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context.
(i) A recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning.
(j) A knowledge of contemporary issues.
(k) An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice
