西新英格蘭學(xué)院

Graduates of the Electrical Engineering Program have the ability to apply their knowledge and skills in a variety of professional electrical engineering positions dealing with research, design, manufacturing, and operation of equipment and services including power, control, communication, computer, optical and electro-optical systems, consumer electronics, household appliances, and electrical and electronic devices and materials. They can also apply for advanced graduate studies.

General Information

Electrical and Computer engineers are at the forefront of today’s technological revolution and they continue to be in demand in all types of public and private enterprises. The value added in today’s products is primarily electronics and software. The Internet has filled our lives with their influences. Electrical and Computer engineering touch every aspect of today’s modern world. Our graduates are uniquely qualified to become engineers, capable of designing hardware and software. Electrical and Computer engineers work in the communications, controls, signal and image processing, biomedical, aerospace, electronics, computer hardware, embedded systems, materials, energy, defense, data gathering / analysis and other diverse commercial sectors.

Program Educational Objectives

In support of the objectives of the College of Engineering, the Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering programs will prepare our students to be proficient at putting theory into practice, capable of lifelong learning, and be aware of the social, ethical, and environmental issues associated with their professional activities.

To ensure these goals, we expect specific accomplishments of our graduates to include the ability to:

Successfully analyze, design, or test electrical/computer systems.

Serve as a productive member of a team.

Assume leadership roles in their career.

Contribute in professional and civic service.

Pursue lifelong learning.

Student Outcomes

Accordingly, the program has documented student outcomes that support the program educational objectives. Attainment of these outcomes prepares graduates to enter the professional practice of engineering.

1. An ability to identify, formulates, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.

2. An ability to apply the engineering design process to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration for public health and safety, and global, cultural, social, environmental, economic, and other factors as appropriate to the discipline.

3. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.

4. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.

Note: International students who have been admitted for Fall 2020 and are unable to travel to the US may defer their admission to Spring 2021.
