Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)

The ECE major provides advanced opportunities for students to analyze, design, and build computing and communication systems. Students apply the principles of linear systems, circuit theory, microelectronics, computer architecture, communication theory, software engineering and signal processing to understand and build these systems.

The Course Requirements of the ECE program are:

ECE - All of:
