The Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering houses three academic programs- Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering.

Computer Engineering is the branch of engineering that integrates the fields of electrical engineering and computer science. Computer engineers use computer hardware and software to solve engineering problems. They are trained in computer architecture, embedded systems, software design, data structures, hardware interfacing, and hardware/software integration. The Computer Engineering program offers courses in basic circuitry, microelectronics, embedded systems, algorithms, data structures, and signal processing. An internship, which gives students engineering work experience, is also part of the program. In the senior year, students complete a two-semester capstone project that integrates their course work. The program prepares graduates to enter engineering industry or pursue advanced studies in the discipline.

Electrical Engineering is the branch of engineering that deals with the design and development of electronic devices and systems such as computers, telecommunications and controls. The Electrical Engineering Program offers courses in basic analog and digital circuits, microelectronic systems, electromagnetics, embedded systems, and signal processing. An internship, which gives students engineering work experience, is also part of the program. In the senior year, students complete a two-semester capstone project that integrates their course work. The program prepares graduates to enter engineering industry or pursue advanced studies in the discipline.

Biomedical engineers learn to engineer solutions to problems at the intersection of engineering and the life sciences through classes in engineering, chemistry, microbiology, neuroscience and more. The program features a strong core in electrical engineering and a diverse set of elective choices, allowing students to prepare for engineering careers such as biomedical device design, biomedical research, or graduate school.

The Electrical & Computer Engineering Department offers both Bachelor of Science (BS) and Master of Science (MS) degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering. The department also offers a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Biomedical Engineering.
