Major in Electrical Engineering
Study the design, construction, and operation of electrical components, circuits, and systems.
Your electrical engineering major will give you a foundation in the design, construction, and operation of electrical components, circuits, and systems. As an electrical engineer, you’ll be concerned with all phases of the transmission of information such as in radio, television, telephone systems, fiber optics, wireless communication, satellite communication, and electric power, and advancing integrated circuit design, test, and implementation. The Electrical Engineering Department supports eight major teaching and research laboratories, three additional laboratories used only for teaching, and a laboratory dedicated to the support of senior design projects.
