Electrical Engineering, B.S.

Engineering is broadly described as the creative application of scientific and mathematical principles used to design, develop, improve, and analyze structures, machines, devices, components, systems, and industrial processes useful to society.  Electrical engineering is the field of engineering that deals with the application and study of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. It originated as a branch of physics and has dramatically changed society.  Inventions associated with electrical engineering include the telephone, light bulb, radio, television, electric motor, power plant, as well as modern computers, phones, cameras, and robots.

Electrical Engineering, B.S., Program Educational Objectives. A few years after graduation, our alumni:

  • Create innovative solutions to electrical engineering problems in the organizations where they work
  • Advance in their careers and grow in their expertise to stay current so they can solve the problems of the future
  • Continue their education through graduate programs or other training programs
  • Contribute to the community

The curriculum for electrical engineering begins with the necessary preparatory courses in mathematics, physics, and computer science. Core courses and electives cover a wide range of topics including digital and analog electronic circuits and systems, solid-state devices, instrumentation, control systems, electromagnetics, and signal processing.  Students will take courses that include laboratory activities. Students are also required to do a senior research project, which involves planning, design, implementation, documentation, and presentation.

Job Opportunity Potential

Due to the large demand, degree holders have multiple paths to reach their career goals.  Electrical engineers find jobs in many businesses and industries. Their job skills are used in electrical design, simulation, electrical systems, schematic diagrams, validation, power distribution, test equipment, circuit design, systems engineering, computer aided drafting, and logic controller programming. Electrical engineers in the industry have a wide range of job titles which includes:  Design Engineer, Product Engineer, Applications Engineer, Systems Engineer, Test Engineer, Hardware Engineer, Communications Engineer, Network Engineer, Sales Engineer, Field Engineer, Process Engineer, Electronics Engineer, Manufacturing Engineer, and Device Engineer. The degree in electrical engineering also prepares students for graduate study in electrical engineering and related fields.  

 

PSW Opportunity

Post-Study Work visa or permit, allowing international students on F-1 visas to work in the US after completing their studies, typically through Optional Practical Training (OPT).

Eligibility:
To be eligible for OPT, students must have been enrolled full-time in a US educational institution for at least one academic year and be seeking work related to their major.

Duration:
Students can apply for up to 12 months of OPT, either before they finish their studies (pre-completion) or after graduation (post-completion).

STEM OPT:
Students in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields can apply for an extended OPT period of up to 24 months.
