The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department offers accredited undergraduate programs in computer systems engineering (CSE) and electrical engineering (EE), and has funded graduate research programs in Sensing systems, Wireless communication, Complex systems modeling, Computer networks, Computer and embedded systems, VLSI and CAD and Post-CMOS nano.
Its microwave engineering program is nationally recognized with an NSF Engineering Research Center for Collaborative Adaptive Sensing of the Atmosphere (CASA), Center for Advanced Sensor and Communication Antennas (CASCA), and Microwave Remote Sensing Lab (MIRSL).
The two fully ABET-accredited B.S. degrees in Computer Systems Engineering and Electrical Engineering has an honors option for qualified students.
